New fatter String won't sit down in the bridge "thingies"

Hi, I changed the Strings on my Peavey Grind today. The old ones were too think and soft for my liking, new Strings are Ernie Ball Power slinky, so 50-135. The B and the D String don't completely sit in the Brigde "things" (Reiter in German). Should I file them down?

Also the strings have a sliiight gap in the roundwound wire. Is that an issue?
