I check the wiring regularly to spot any overheating, but haven't found any indications such as wiring insulation becoming hard, discoloration of any of the connectors, etc.
I ran higher wattage bulbs on my motorcycle and did see issues like this, so I know they can happen, but so far, no issues. It probably helps that I run normal wattage low beams, so the higher draw is only used intermittently, rather than all night.
