115mm brakes to 120mm ski

So I bought the Bent Chetler skis and I'm thinking of making a touring setup of them. I could get the Salomon Guardian on sale but I'm concerned if the 115mm brakes are going to fit the 120mm waist. Can you bend the brakes or is it worth the hassle?

You're bending the brake 2.5mm either side of the binding. You'll be fine, just go to an experienced ski technician and you'll be fine.

You'll be fine, no technician required... the Salomon brakes run 6mm wide at least- I have their 100mm brakes on a 106mm ski and they don't even touch the sides and they haven't been bent.

Shouldn't be a problem at all.

I've got Marker 110mm brakes on my JJ's which are 115mm at the waist, they'll work fine.

They should be fine. I also have 110 on 115's. They should fold in nice as well.
