Bindings for Lizzies

So I just bought Line Lizzie's. They are 110 underfoot and I am looking for bindings. I am 5'8" and I weigh about 130 pounds. I am an advanced skier. I was thinking I should get the PX12 jibs but I'm not sure if that would be the best for me.

The thing is though, I can only get bindings from backcountry.com because that is where I have a gift card too.

I have these to choose from.

Would a shop be able to bend 100mm bindings to fit a 110 ski?

Thanks,(+karma) Does anyone else know if a 100mm brake or the 97mm brake on the tyrolas could be easily stretched to 110mm? The PX12s are about $50 cheaper than the tyrolas. What would the benefits of the tyrolas be?

theres just something about px12's im not fond of, i dont really like the cantact points of the toe piece. i believe the tyrolias have a slight pivot release to them also, they are very light and sturdy, and any good shop should be able to bend that brake.

i have sth 12's on my chronics and they hold up as well as anything else. I am recycling my px 12's off my invaders to put on my lizzies, they have a 100mm break but they are fairly easy to bend.

And the first review:

"The brakes on these babies are at least 120mm, maybe 130mm with slight bending. Measured with a ruler and I came out between the 120-130mm mark. Either way they're definitely bigger when compared to 110mm Marker Duke. What else can I say? They hold you in with a full metal heal."

Am I heavy enough for those? Would I need that over the PX12 jibs that's din only goes to 12. My din will be at like 6 or so.

How bendable would the brakes be? It seems like the PX series brakes are not easy too bend.
