The 169 probably, you aren't exactly tall enough for the 179, nor weight enough to drive it, in my opinion. The K2 rockered skis run longer than posted, since they post the effective edge, which is shortened with the rocker, so the 169 will actually be around a 172-174, which is a good length for someone your size.
