Insole Recommendation for Sidi's

Just bought myself some Sidi Wire Carbon Vernice Road Shoes, but my ankle seems to be rubbing against the top of the shoe on the left shoe, looking to replace the flat sidi insoles with something which might lift my foot up a bit so then my ankle will not rub against the shoe - Any recommendations for insoles please?

    I put some old Specialized BG red insoles from my worn out S Works shoes into my new Sidis and they work well. They are slightly thicker than the flat blue Sidi insoles, giving a bit more cushioning and making the shoes a slightly tighter fit.

    Your foot may get used to it after a while. I had the same problem. The Wires have slighty thicker insoles than the standard blue ones but I used Specialized BG insoles in my Ergo 2s although they caused slight rubbing on my little toes. Might try them in the Wires at some point.

    I already have these inside my sidi's, they just seem flat.
    Basically I need an insole which will raise my heel up a little.

    I use Orthosoles (£38 on Amazon) in my Sidis, which are customisable. Very comfortable.

    Thanks for the replies and recommendations, looked at the Specialized BG insoles on their website, seems there is 3 different insoles + Red, ++ Blue, +++ Green.
    I'm guessing the + Red will be the correct ones for me, to raise my heel up.
