I don't directly have experience with this, but I personally would welcome more teeth on my big chainring: more top speed on flats/dirt roads. I really never use the little chainring either, even on steep climbs. I think they sell "trekking" cranksets with 48T big rings, so you should be ok.
You should be able to shift up to that (with some adjustment), and you may need to add a couple links. I don't think anyone else can answer that link number question unless they have the same bike with the same setup. You may be able to run the same chain, just not in the extremes (big-little, little-big).
...my 2 cents.
