I'm 6'4" about 210 and found the Fit2Race sleeveless works well. http://www.f2r.com/Size is a "ls" (I think it's "long slim"). Contact them, customer service is excellent.

I have an xterra wetsuit. I am 6'7 215 so a little bit heavier but mine is slightly tight.  I did not get their cheapy brand as the guy said that it is not as elastic and would not stretch as much. I would just call the companies and they can usually help you find something.  I would go by weight more than height though as you don't want it to be too lose or tight but if it is a little short on the legs/arms it doesn't really matter.

2XU fits taller swimmers. I am 6'8" a a bit heavier and the XXL fits great. Check the size charts and see if the XL fits at 6'7".

i'm a similar size.  i went desoto t1 so i could get a different size top and bottom.  i sent them my measurements and they helped me size it correctly.  i'm very pleased with it.

Try an XL Zoot Fuzion. That's what I have and it fits great. You will probably have some leg and arm showing but that's OK. I'm 6'5", 225.

I'm 6'6", 190-195 and I have the Zoot Zenith Large. Of the three wetsuits I've owned over the years, it's by far the best fitting suit.
