I have that same head on my 058 leg set, it's pretty heavy duty for the 055 leg 
set, just make sure you weight the tripod down when you go cantilevering the 
camera on the centre post. One of the 166 Apron Support (little bag that hangs 
between the legs which can be loaded up for added weight) might be a wise 
purchase.

My carbon Manfrotto tripods are a similar set-up, they work quite well and my 
Super Pro 3D head is very smooth in operation with the stock lube.
