Looking for wide stiff-ish boots.

So, i currently own a pair of burton rulers restricted 2013 that have +- 25 days on them. After the break in period (which i've talked about in another thread), they are ultra comfortable... When i'm not riding.
I've tried superfeet insoles, comform'able and footprint gamechangers. The gamechangers are awesome, and i'm not looking for another pair of insoles.
The problem is, the middle of my feet is killing me when i'm actually riding. And I believe the cause of this is that I have really wide feets in the middle of the foot.
I'd like a wider, slightly more responsive than my rulers. I ride all mountain, and trying to get into buttering/jumping.
I've searched the forum for a while, done my homework,...
My list of possible fit :
K2 T1
I've read that K2 fit wide feet nicely, thanks to the intuition liner.
They're listed as a 8/10 in flex, but i've heard they're stiff as hell. Anybody got any info on the actual fit/flex ? The boa conda thingy also appeals to me.
Vibram sole is a huge + too.
32 tm2
Everybody says that 32's are comfortable as it gets, and run on the wide side. But i've also read that they've been getting narrower these last few years. Is it true ?
Also, the sole seems like pure shit. How durable is it walking on concrete, and how does it grips on ice ?
Northwave Decade SL
Everytime someone speaks about northwaves, they say that they're the most comfortable boot possible. How are they with wide feets?
They have a speedlacing system tho, and i wanted to get away from that. Anybody knows how good it is ?
Salomon synapse wide
Looks like salomon actually makes the widest boots out there.
They look really stiff, and seem
100% back country oriented.
I've also read that their speelace system is crap. Any info on this ?
DC kush
Seems like a cool boot but opinions are mixed on DC's. Some people say they're wide, some others say they're narrow.
Does anybody have info on this particular model ?
They're also listed as a 7/10 on flex, but people say they're far softer than that.
I've found a few stores that might carry some of the models listed,but they aren't anywhere close to me and none will have 2 of them so i'll probably order a few pairs online and return the ones that don't cut it.
I hope you guys can help me narrow it down, or add/cut models from the list.
Thanks for everything in advance and sorry 'bout the long post.
