Django Crispy Form - horizontal form - how to change column widths - django-forms

Question

I have a horizontally oriented crispy form and the label widths on my form vary a lot. The current effect is either not very wide columns with bunched up labels or a lot of white space between the label and the response area. It'd be nice if the space for a label better reflects its individual need. Most of the form are y/n questions with sometimes long labels.
Also, I defined a horizontal radio button that works great if I don't use crispy, but with crispy, the buttons are stacked. Any ideas? Thanks.
Here's my forms.py:
class HorizontalRadioSelect(forms.RadioSelect):
template_name = 'horizontal_select.html'
class OptionalServiceAndDemographicsForm(forms.ModelForm):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(OptionalServiceAndDemographicsForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
self.helper = FormHelper(self)
self.helper.attrs['autocomplete'] = 'off'
self.helper.form_id = 'id-gather-name'
self.helper.form_class = 'form-horizontal'
self.helper.form_method = 'post'
# self.helper.form_action = ''
self.helper.label_class = 'col-4'
self.helper.field_class = 'col-2'
self.helper.form_tag = False
self.helper.layout = Layout(
'public_assistance',
Row(Column('dependents'),Column('single_parent')),
'country_of_birth',
Row(Column('immigrant'),Column('us_citizen')),
Row(Column(''),Column('plans_to_stay')),
'disabilities_not_required_disclose',
'disabilities_student_wants_to_disclose',
'disabilities_student_understands',
'disabilities_student_requests',
)
