do they go down at all? If they're just scraping the sidewall as they go down, it shouldnt be a problem, otherwise im guessing you'd need to just go buy wider breaks. I really dont know much about break bending in whatnot, considering EC pow doesnt really exist, and the need for wider skis is obsolete. I know that TGR would be a much better place to check this shit out.

Snap a boot in and slip a pole over each brake arm one by one (old ski pole, piece of pipe, bike seatpost, etc). Bend them out a little each then re-check.

make sure you do it with the boot engaged though, or you could easily fuck the whole brake housing..bambam is on it
