It's not a problem.
The sidewall pressure rating is the maximum COLD INFLATION pressure for the tire. If it's 51psi in the hot sun, the tire manufacturer has taken this into account.
Some tires need to be jacked to 80psi or higher to seat the bead... it's not going to explode on you. with a cold inflation at 42psi.
