95mm brake on a 96mm ski?

So basically I got my new skis (K2 Poacher) and the width of the ski is 96mm. I am looking online to look for bindings and the ones that I want and that are also on sale are either 95mm or 110mm. I am wondering if 95mm would be good or if I should search for something around 100mm (or if I should get the 110mm).

Thanks
 
My prodigy 2.0s are 96 and I have 100mm wide bindings that work really well. Both the 95 and the 100 would be fine but 110 would be too big for sure.
 
Don’t worry about it, you’ll be golden with a 95mm brake on a 96mm ski. The brake size is a guide and whichever size you are closest to will fit, they all run a bit wide.

So for example, the tyrolias the 95mm brake will fit up to 102mm waist ski (possibly with some minor bending reqd @100+mm), above that you’ll need the 110mm.

You want to avoid sizing up too much on the brake, as if they overhang the ski too much they can get caught up in each other, on your pants etc.
 
I would search for something bigger around 100mm, my skis have an 88mm width and a 90mm brake width and the breaks barely clear the ski
