It would be about 5/8" difference on both sides if the spring box dimensions given are correct. It may be possible to correct for this by the careful placement of more padding for the seat bottom cushion. Keep in mind that they have to fit back into the quarters a bit so I'd keep any padding changes on top. The area could be altered a bit on both sides with removal of affected stitches and trimming followed by sewing it back up but I'd trial fit it first with adjusted padding thickness to see how it might work.
