Remember that although the 55mm ones are 11mm bigger theyll only give you 5.5mm extra ground clearance as ground clearance is a radius from the axle and the wheels are measured as a diameter.
If youve not tried it with bolts yet you could have issues once you factor fitting bolt heads and however much it drops with your weight. (bending wood, stretching bolts squashing wheels, bearing slack etc)
Mine has enough ground clearance to roll till i stand on it and i reckon im a similar weight to you.
