Replying to Binding help: s916 vs tyrolia freeflex 17

Bloc_chain:
so i'm in a bit of a dilemma, i need to pick what bindings to put on my 191 on3p great scotts and its between salomon s916s and tyrolia freeflex 17, both are race binings, both are very durable. im 6'2" 160 lbs(give or take a few), expert skier, and will be using these skis to fill the charging section of my quiver. din will be at 14 or 15. now the reason im having this issue is the s916s will cost me any where from $130 to $250 while i already have the tyrolias on a pair of race skis. the breaks might be an issue on the tyrolias, but if the 916s can be bent that wide why not them? or are the break mounts the same on the race bindings as the freeride ones so i could just buy some 130mm breaks. thoughts?
