If possible I want to replace with it at next wheel maintenance.
No, not a good idea.

Your little bike already has tires as wide as some bikes that weigh almost twice as much. That's one thing I like about it. You could go up a few mm with the tires but that is not likely to make any noticeable difference.

Best to stick as close to stock as possible. Any big change may have a bad impact on handling or suspension travel.
