Default HS55- how can I use large servo holes?

I use Hitec HS55 servos and .032 wire on my Bluecore plane, and I have broken all my servo arms (the ones with the holes perfectly drilled for .032 wire) .

I still have extra servo arms with large holes. but I don't want to go to heavy wire because I am trying to keep the weight as low as possible. has anyone found a good way to use these larger servo arm holes and still keep it light?

Maybe I should just order a bunch of extra servo arms.

DuBro makes a cool kit that comes with very thin control wire in a sleeve. The kit also includes an insert that fits perfectly into those "big holes". It is held in by a rubber stopper and clamps the wire with a set screw. I have no idea what the inserts are called but I have them on all my servos. They are light.
