Pivots on longer boot?

I had to size up a mondo size, same boot, (k2 method), but had my pivots mounted for a 28.5 whilst my new boots are a 29.5. I can get into the binding, but what else should I do to make the adjustment for it to be safe to ski? Is it the forward pressure? Or what's the procedure here? Thanks!

I mean go to a shop if you can. The forward pressure indicator is not the only thing to consider. The tower must fully engage, so the tower should have almost the same angle when engaged with or without the boot. Also different boot size can change the reccomended release value of you DIN so I'd hit up a shop.

It's only an 8mm difference between the sizes, I think I ought to be fine with some adjustments.

Nothing else to consider. Bindings are super simple, man. Just clip in and send it!
