Too risky for me. Even though the reward is big from doing them, one bad lift can set you back 2+ months... 225 is a lot to dead lift considering where you are with benching... Be careful, can't stress that enough.
My chiropractor has made some good money off of people doing dead lifts, but the even bigger one to avoid is the kettle ball. This is a big money maker for him. He says he's just about to hand out a business card to anyone doing it in the gym. Kettle ball took me out for over 2 months. Sciatic pain was unreal after just the slightest form change...
