I have the Stuchi Luigi foot from MG Cycle, fits well.

If you are already dragging your side stand adding a foot will definitely increase this issue. Mine is about flat so grinding the stop to make it fold up within a quarter inch of the peg to increase ground clearance and using a plastic base stand from Aerostich works well for the few times I use my side stand.

Cut an enlarged foot from some thick aluminum and JB Weld it to the bottom of your stock footprint.

I set mine up with the JBW and leave the bike parked on a level concrete floor over night on the new foot until the JBW cures.  Use lots of JBW to fill the space that may be needed to "levelize" the new foot and tap it around on the floor with a hammer etc to properly align the foot before the JBW cures. Wipe off excess JBW.

I've done that for years on various bikes and it works great.
