The first vintage set I built was 1955. I didn't find the high numbers to be as difficult as other sets. I loved the set and Clemente and Koufax are two of my favorites but I would lean towards the 1954 if I were in our shoes. Still three HOFer rookies like the 55 but seeing all the cards lined up side by side I think the 55 tends to become a bit monotonous while the 54 colors pop. The only card I prefer by far in the 55 as compared to the 54 is Jackie Robinson. I think the close up of him is an odd choice of photos. Just my opinion.
As already stated, either way you really can't go wrong and hopefully you will get the chance to do both in time.
