In a perfect world you'd get a split skin and trim it to fit every inch of your monster ski. You don't want your skins to be slimmer than your ski - you want them fatter then your ski and you want to trim your skin to fit your ski perfectly with ~1-2mm of room so you can edge on side ice.

In a perfect world you would get a 140mm, but as wide as your skis/skins are, I would agree with Tyler that you will have PLENTY of grip. Enjoy!

The 130mm will fit just fine! That's a lot of skin and a lot of traction, your skins always need to be a tad narrower than your ski's anyways so you have some edge to work with on any icy/sun-baked slopes..
