You can look at the frame around the chainstays, brake bridge, and fork crown to see how much clearance you would have for larger tires.

Bent chainrings are often due to loose crank spider bolts. So, make sure they're tight. Nonetheless, as others have indicated, I'd ride until the problems show up.

Do you skid? Perhaps that puts significant strain on your bike, as well as wearing down tires.
