So I'm planning on grabbing some 2016 K2 Sight's, however I've heard they run bigger in length, such as a 159cm ski is really around 164cm. I want to buy them if this is the case cause I'm looking for them to be around 164cm. Is this true about the size difference?

Just go with the size that they say on their site, if they happen to be to big then you lucked out because you wont have to buy another pair of skis sooner when you grow.

Yeah a K2 159, 169, 179, etc. ski will be about as long as most other skis 5cm taller than that length. For example, my on3p Wrenegades are 181's, and on3p measures the length from the tip to tail after the ski is all made, and my k2 Shreditor 112's are 179's and are longer tip to tail than the on3p's are.
