Have you tried this: Tin the wires with solder. Then, using needle-nose pliers, "squish" the tinned area to flatten the area somewhat. That should reshape the wire enough to allow you to insert the flattened wire edge-wise into the solder-post groove.

I use this "trick" when soldering wires on Tekin ESC solder posts.
