Is it possible to switch out the brake on Rossignol FKS's with a wider brake? I have the 90mm's right now and want to get a more all mountain ski to be able to ski pow, so I would get the next one up.

Not without removing the heel pieces from your skis.

to change bindings from a ski to another ski you will need to remove the heel pieces from the ski...... yes its possible, put they are pretty hard to find, you can do it your self by bending them, their's a video somewhere that show's how to do it, can't seem to find it .. if anybody can help

you're better of bending them. you'll be hard pressed to find a wide brake just by itself as rossi/look don't make it as a separate part. Even if you do, it's a bitch replacing a brake as you have to take apart the heel piece to do so.
