Default Big foot problem!

So this is my problem. I have the flame pegs, and my feet are a little big for them. Size 13e and all. So the side of my foot hangs off a little to much for my liking. And at freeway speeds, its almost scary. I guess my question is. Will heel rest make any difference? Or is there another way I should go? Maybe some ext. that curve up, or something along those lines. Not sure what to do, that's why I'm asking you guys. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

heel rests, different pegs or find some spacers to move them out.

Wow. That seems like a lot of hardware.
