182s
Unless you're only skiing park on them, and mostly on jibs AND like shorter skis. You could get away with 176s.
I'm 6'1" 170 and 182s seem great, I would live with shorter for parts of park though.

182 Alpha 2's cause the rocker will make the ski seem shorter but the extra length will be there for grabs and swing weight, and the durability is awesome.

I love my 176s and I am 5'7" but ride all mountain on them... go for 182
