something in the 160-169 range would probably work the best. I'm 5'3, and I'm on a 163 and love it.

Im just about 5'4' and Im thinking about getting some 142's I found real cheap and in real good condition to use only on rails... I wouldnt use skis that short for anything else tho, my regular skis are 159's and are exactly as tall as me

^I wouldn't go for it. Shorter skis tend to be harder to do rails with.
