Black.BirdYou'll have to adjust your bindings. You can adjust FKS bindings a little.
There are two stems on each side of the heel piece that you can adjust to create more room for your boot. Make sure the white tab is flush with the two dashes, by making incremental adjustments to both stems equally.
I did the same thing when I got some new boots earlier this season.
shin-bangdo not use the white tab as an indicator. this is a very common misconception that can cause people to pre release. so many people make this mistake. but he his right when turning the stems, turn them incrementally. dont crank one side and then go back and crank the otherside. do like 1 turn on the left and then a turn on the right. note. 1 turn will most likely be too much for a 1mm change.

Jaggy_SnakeThis.
The indicator for the forward pressure is terrible. On mine the tab is 3/4mm behind the indicator and the forward pressure is as correct as it could be.
OP: If you are unsure about adjusting them yourself I would recommend to take them to a certified tech to adjust them for you, just to be on the safe side.
NinetyFourHow is it a misconception? The white tab and raised dashes' specific functio, purposely built in by Look/Rossi is to indicate forward pressure. I've rode 4 different sets of skis this year, loads of days, all adjusted so that the end of the white tab is centered with the raised dashes and haven't had any weird pre-releases.
And if you didn't use it, how do you set the forward pressure? Really, the only way to do it like that would be guess and check which probably isn't a solid idea. At the least use it to get a ballpark on your forward pressure...
