And not to sound like a dick, because that does, but don't do this to yourself. Take it from somebody who has. You can't buy boots this way. You will think you're happy with just buying boots online, until you get fitted and find out otherwise. Just go into a place with a good bootfitter. They will fit you for a boot based on what fits your foot first, and on the type of skiing you do second. A pair of X-Wave 7's from last year that fit will work better than SPK's that are a size and a half to big.
That said, I can't actually answer your question. If somebody does, use it only as a starting point. With a good bootfitter you won't need to worry about that either. Just go somewhere, and tell them you ski park (or all mtn, or whatever you ski) and show them your foot. Problem solved.

imma agree, get fitted. however, having tried the full tilts i can give you an idea. medium width (99 last), feel a little low if you have a high instep. the heel hold, in my case is exeptional, i have a pretty standard heel. only problem for me were the maleola on the outside of both feet. however, i think that unlike other ski boots that you CAN get thermofitter, with FT you MUST get thermofitted to get a decent fit. Its a different boot altogeter. the coolest thing is that there isnt ANY loose between you calf and the liner when you flex
but get fitted
