What frames size should I get??

hey everybody, I am ordering a new Leader 721TR frame and was wondering what size to get. I am about 5'4-5'5, and the frame comes in a 51cm and 53cm. I know that a 51 would fit me perfect, but I am still growing and I would like something that I can keep for the next few years. I don't mind if the frames a bit big now, but I would also like it to be fairly comfortable. Any suggestions? Will it be all that bad if the frames to big for me now?

I'd get the 51, by the time you stop growing you'll probably be ready for a different bike.
