I added a few lines to my .vimrc to autoclose tags like [], "", '', () these all work fine but somehow the autoclosing of {} adds a space in between them and I have no idea how this comes.

"auto complete brackets
33 inoremap { {}<Esc>i                                                                                                                          
34 inoremap [ []<Esc>i
35 inoremap ( ()<Esc>i
36 inoremap " ""<Esc>i
37 inoremap ' ''<Esc>i

Anyone has an idea? Ask if you think it's handy for me to post the rest of my .vimrc

Thanks!

It is possible that it comes from a trailing space at the end of the line 33 of your .vimrc. If a space is present after the last i character of your line, vim will interpret it literally and add it between your curly brackets.

Also you might be interested in the auto-pair plugin: it automatically insert matching characters and it also handle smarly the deletion of those characters.
