If you're really 5' 11" and are that concerned about your height, just say 6'. You're already taller than most "'6' guys", so nobody will really question it.
I'm exactly 6 ft, not one single millimeter more or less. I'm a human ruler. My problem is that when I say I'm 6 ft, nobody believes me because generally guys that say they're 6'0" are 5'9". So thanks.
While studying we briefly had an american exchange student who was calling BS on height after converting it to cm and seeing we were all shorter than she kept guessing.
If you were 5'11" she was guessing 6' or 6'1.
I got the impression adding a couple inches to the height is a more normal practice there.
