You can run 175s on a Olympic level velodrome and be just fine. Just don't slow down, IE no match sprints.

5mm shorter than your road cranks is pretty much the common starting point. Considering your track is pretty shallow, I would even consider 172.5 as well. Depends if you like a little more torque over a quicker "feeling" cadence.
