There is no downgrade option, you will need to re-install 5.5 on the host, if that's the version you require.
If you have an ESXi 6.0 host, it will support VMs from 5.0, 5.1 and 5.5 and earlier there is NO requirement to downgrade your host to support earlier VMs.
The virtual machine hardware is compatible and will support your VMs, if that's the question.
I hope that answers your question better.
