Get the 95-115. 130s are gonna be way too big and the thing with Pivot brakes is when the boot is in the binding, the brakes only come up, they don’t get pulled in towards the center of the ski like a Griffon or an Attack would. 115 will be more than fine, I have 95s on all my skis up to 108 underfoot with zero issue. This way they don’t catch on the other ski/when riding switch. Hope that helps brotha
