How about a picture of your setup?

The Riv picture shows oodles of clearance using brakes that aren't IRD.  

Your brake pads probably have a set of spacers that have a thick side and a 
thin side.  If the thick side is on the rim side of the setup now, swapping 
the thin side spacer to the inside will move the pads off the rim, which 
you'll fix by pulling out some slack in the cable, raising the arch and 
getting you some clearance.  Raising the arch on low profile cantilevers 
does change the brake geometry, and will reduce your mechanical advantage 
somewhat.  

Throwing out that arch wire and replacing it with a separate straddle cable 
and carrier will enable to keep your straddle height as low as possible 
while still clearing your rack.
