Cleat with most fore/aft adjustment

I've got one foot half a size bigger than the other and have never really been happy with my cleat positioning. As is sometimes suggested on here, one way of dealing with this would be to buy 2 pairs of shoes of different sizes and bin the ones that aren't needed. Alternatively, I'm wondering if switching pedals might work. My Time RXS cleats have about 15mm of fore/aft adjustment less the diameter of the bolt. One sits nicely mid position while the other is rammed as far forward as possible but still not quite far enough. So, the question is are there any cleats out there with a little more adjustment ? 20mm would probably do the trick.

half a size difference is pretty common, i'm the same, but it shouldn't in itself make cleat position an issue (makes none to me)
with the 15 mm range you say you have, if one cleat is centred and the all the way forward, that's 7.5mm, which is more than a 0.5 shoe size difference (leaving aside that even a full size difference won't alter cleat position that much)
if you need the cleats set so differently i'd suspect there's something else causing it, maybe a leg length difference? if it is a problem for you, it might be worth seeing a physio who knows bike fit to assess things and work out what is neededmy bike - faster than god's and twice as shiny0
