If these minor things dont work, I would really think about investing into a professional fitting.
This is about the one thing I haven't adjusted myself, mainly because I'm not too sure what to try. If it helps, I have very flat feet, and I get the sensation that my legs are too close together when I ride -- my knees are always brushing the top tube. I'm using Speedplay Zeros with no limits set [full float], although I have also used platformers (pieces of plastic that cover the Speedplays to turn them into regular pedals -- although it doesn't add any extra lateral room because they are tiny pedals).
