Thanks.
They call them pedal shims. Basically you just stick them between the cleat and the shoe.

I think the problem you will run into is that the shims are quite thin compared to the distance you need. You might be better served with different thickness pedals or something like that. 5/8" is a lot to shim, so special pedals and/or shoes to accommodate that might be the best approach. (I have a small difference that I never knew existed until I got measured for a bike fitting.)
