Well, there does not seem to be an international test of 'spiciness' available so the easiest way of checking how spicy your friend likes their food is by referring to some very hot foods.
By asking this question:-
"Do you consider anything to be too spicy?" you are asking the person if there is a limit on the level of spiciness that they can handle.
"Do you consider anything to be too spicy?"
(辛すぎると思うものはありますか?)

What level of spiciness can you take?
When asking someone is they can 'handle' something it means can they deal with or take it. Mildly spicy food may be very hot to some people and very weak to others.
Spicy food is different between different cultures and cuisines so what may be spicy in one isn't in another. This is a good question to see what they think is spicy to get an idea as to how much spiciness they can take. I hope that this helps. :)
