I would actually go with a healthy 60 or 55 and set up your gains accordingly. The thing is that it's better to overpower them than underpower them since if you underpower them, you'll find yourself pushing the speakers a lot harder than if you overpower them, which at that point, the speaker would sound distorted since it's not made to handle power after a certain threshold.
Besides, it would be easier to tune the amp to not blow up the 40 watt speakers than having to handle the clipping of the 55 watt speakers.
