No More Blisters on a Long Run But....

I'd been searching for ways to prevent blisters around my toes. Blisters are usually shown up around my little toes when i do more than 8 miles run. I've tried various methods: cutting toenails, using dried-socks, changing running shoes to xtra wide (4E), and sprinkling baby powder. None of these methods works. With the power of Google search, I found an article that recommended wearing toesocks. I ordered a pair from Amazon and tried them on a 10 miles run. The socks work great as they prevent blisters around my toes. However the socks make my feet wider and now the outter side of my little toes hurt. As my foot hits the ground my little toe hit and rub against the side of the shoe. I love these toesocks but should I cut open a hole on the side of my shoes so that my little toe can have more room??
