I bought my tubus cargo within the last year and I thought the same thing. Included in the hardware should be some black spacers (hollow tube about 5mm long). One goes on each side between the eyelet and the rack and then you use the provided longer bolt. The long haul trucker is 135mm spacing and with this set up I did not need to squeeze or spread the rack. Your soma smoothie es is 130mm I think so you may need to squeeze it in a tad.
Make sure your rack came with all the hardware needed, I had to return one when the stays were missing for some reason.
