I'm currently around 167 cm and my wingspan is about 174 cm. Planning on doing double surgery, femurs first followed by tibias a few weeks later. Doctor said I could potentially gain 5-5.5 inches (12-14cm). If I do reach around 180 cm which is my goal, would this look weird with my wingspan? Anyone have similar proportions before or after surgery or know of any notable examples? Would hate to have to get arm lengthening later on, but I just hate the way that short limbs look.

Thanks for the responses guys. Guess I will see how it goes while lengthening. Worse comes to worst I could always lengthen the arms a bit after LL. I also have small hands/feet (US Men's size 8, Euro 41) so maybe I should just be more conservative with my goal in order to get the best proportions relative to the rest of my bones?
