Searching for a Rear Bike Rack

I'm riding a 63cm Trek Pilot, and since the chain stays are annoyingly short, my heels hit the pannier on the back end of the pedal cycle.

I'm using this pannier: http://banjobrothers.com/products/01090.php
and this rack: http://bontrager.com/model/00329/en

i managed to finagle the pannier so that it sits pretty far back on the rack so i get enough heel clearance, but then there's not enough of the rack frame to stop it from swaying into the wheel's spokes.

I found this rack online but can't find any reviews anywhere:

The description sounds like it attempts to solve this very problem, but i'd like to get some feedback from someone who's already tried it.

I also found this one that could potentially work, but it's hard to say:

Thoughts? Suggestions?
