How are you with the stock seat? 5'6" here. If you're good with the stock one you could always lower with shorter shocks. I have an 07 Superglide and I put a Lowrider seat on with the Harley low shocks and it works for me.

You could think about using an air hawk type cushion. They raise your seating height maybe 1/4 inch at the most and many here have had good comfort with them. Many of the other cushion types do not work nearly as well.

Take a look at C&C Seats. Won't raise the height and excellent fit/finish. Pricey, but worth it!

The only seat I've tried on my bike that actually sits me lower than the stock FXDC seat is the CVO Dyna seat. And it just happens to be the most comfortable seat for the long-haul that I've tried (and I've tried a lot of seats).
