Outer old rafters: c/c 140cm, with double 1,5x4" joists at 140cm, and one more between.
The width of the room is approx 3,10m

So the outer 4x4 rafters are 140cm (55.1181 inches / 4.59318 feet) from center to center, is that right?
If the room is approx 3,10m that means there is only 1, at most 2 4x4 rafters within your room, is that right?

Recommendations for getting the roof as high as possible while making the structure strong enough?
How risky is it removing those old joists, replacing them with higher/smaller ones?

I don't think that would be a good idea because it's fairly important for the joists to sit on the outside wall.

I could make new outer rafters in between so it would be c/c 70cm.

That might not be a bad idea and it would also improve the symmetry of the room.
