My foot slides all over they are so wide, and narrow boots like the 98mm you mention that I have tried on crush my feet.

Do not buy something like that. If the 100mm is comfy, don't just say "It is only 2 mm, it should be fine." Find that model and try them on!!
Better err a little smaller than go to big. It's much easier to stretch something a little than to try to fill in a big boot.
