How critical is road bike tire pressure max?

Just received some 25mm Vee Rubber road tires and it says 7bar 100psi
max on the side. That's a bit low for my taste.
The Zafiro I have on there now says 100psi min and 130psi max which is
more up my alley.
By how much can a low max rating be exceeded? I like 100-115psi on my
road bike in back. On the front I won't exceed the max because a
blow-out would be nasty and that carries less weight anyhow.
Are these both the same size tire? 100 psi sounds right for 25mm tires.
100 - 130 psi sounds like 23mm.
