Both 58s have the same reach. Fork steerer tube length is fixed sets your final stack, lots of spacers aren't bad, just weird looking. If you want a taller bike (the 60) you'll need a 20cm shorter stem. In my old age I go for the taller bike. I'm the same height as you, I'd get an 60cm ES with sloping TT.
