I have dynastar px 14 racing bindings with 110mm bakes. I want to mount them in a pair of k2 hellbents. They look like they will fit but will they? Can I do this?

they will not fit, Hellbents are 122 underfoot, you need a 130 break.

depends on the shop. some might bend them since its not that much (only 5mm each side) but others might just tell you to order the wider break

You could definatly bend those quite easily, 5mm a side is not much. Apply heat to the area you will be bending outwards make sure its nice and hot and just bend it slightly outwards until it easily clears the ski and can complete its full travel of motion.
