It will cost me $40 for every pair of boots I try on, so I'd like to limit my search to boots that have the best possibility of fitting.

Carbon Pros are narrower in the toe box. They are best for a low volume foot. They don't stretch. Really no insulation so depending on how cold it gets where you ski you'll end up with some pretty cold tootsies. Fitzgerald NH

The cold tooties thing is a non-issue - just wear some insulated boot covers. There are a wide variety available from light weight to very warm. The only issue is whether or not they'll work with the Pilot binding system (any boot cover will work with any other system). But don't worry about Pilots - any cover I'm familiar with can be modified to accomodate the second Pilot attachment point.

I find it remarkable that you think seem to think I wear lycra and paper thin gloves and hat all the time in very cold weather. My current boot warmers are pretty thick already. I guess I should wear two pairs or something? Or get some sort of down ones or have them custom made or something.
