two things

lambert:
ok then time for a rethink. would there be any safety/strength/legal implications to riviting on 3 spring type clips to the face of each wheel from the back through the upstand next to where the wheel nuts are?

Range Rover Blues:
Try and avoid doing it in the area between the centre flange (where the nuts are) and the outer edge of the cnetre disk, say where the vent holes are.  This area of the wheel is the most highly stressed.

lambert:
ok then would welding on some clips be a stronger alternative (not that i really want to weld stuff to my rims if i can help it as even if painted it will eventually let the metal moth in)?

Range Rover Blues:
Welding=stress & weakness.

Remind me, what is it you want to fasten to the wheels :-k

lambert:
a set of 9" dia stainless steel hub caps off of a ford 100e from the 1960's. the idea being to hide just the drive flanges and wheel nuts on a set of defender 110 factory steel wheels.
