They are a perfect fit diameter wise, but they're about 1.5-2mm too long and will not allow both bearings to fit in the hub carrier simultaneously.
I will buy some bearings with a 2mm and 3mm width in the hope that I can make some that fit.
To date though, my venture continues.

Get a file and just file them down a little.
Glad we've almost sorted your problem
