Fitting CMF55 to PedalPCB boards

Does anyone have experience with fitting CMF55/RN55 resistors on PPCB boards? CMF55 should be 0.290in (7.37mm) long at maximum. So it could fit but I would like to know your experience. It is always possible to let resistors stand on one side, but I'm not fond of it that much.
 
I pretty much always use rn55, and they fit fine. I placed a large order (for me) a few months ago for rn60 by mistake, and those fit fine too, with some minor exceptions. (Of course, I needed to angle them all…)

That said, I think the rn55s are more like 6.1mm long, the extra ~1.25mm would be tight, and I think problematic.
