I just purchased Hitec HS-485HB servo's for cyclic but the servo wheels that come with them are too small. My local HS says I need to buy larger servos but I know many people are using these servos in their 425s which is why I got them, is there another brand that is compatible with Hitec? HELP!!!

IMHO you need to change your local HS at first

What do they mean by "larger" - size or power?

I would say yours looks like standard servos (size wise) so they should be just fine. Spec wise they are strong enough but quite slow. For the flybar version and not hardcore 3D flying they will do the job I guess.

As for the horns - you need something like one of these (pls. remember about the offside):

Jack thanks for the quick response. The hobby shop said get a bigger servo size wise, yes the 425 fits a larger servo but these fit just fine. After looking at the pictures you sent me I realized I that I might have some larger servo wheels from my old RC Drift cars, it took me a while to find them cause I haven't ran my cars in a looong time but I found three. I feel so dumb, I spent so much time looking on line and I had them this whole time.

Thanks a bunch!!!!
