The Bennett is a great front truck, especially if you wedge it about 7 to 10 degrees (skinny end of wedge toward front of board). So your front is fine.
For the rear, though, you want a slower-turning truck, so it just kind of follows the front along. The RT-X turns more quickly than the RT-S, so the RT-S is a better choice for a rear truck. And yes, 106mm is probably a better width. You can do TS, Hybrid or even GS on it; it's more versatile than the 129mm. If you get an RT-S for the rear, try to dewedge it a few degrees (skinny end toward front of board).
One other good choice for a rear truck is a "stable" Seismic (30-degree angle) in 105mm. You won't need to dewedge it at all.
