JAY:
As you know Chris i have replaced a hub using the old rivots , what i done was drill and tap the cut off end of the old rivot ,and used a bolt to fasten the hub in , the bolt was dressed to look like a rivot head , i wrecked a few rivots trying to get the holes drilled into the rivots as the wall ends up thin but it works , although i wouldn't go mad on it , its only for show .I have tried replacing a hub with steel rivots i had made , but it resulted in me cracking the wheel (just a old wrecker anyway) so be careful trying to press steel rivots in !  The other idea i had but never tried was to get some alloy rivots made which would be much easier to compress , but i wouldn't recommend thrashing them .

i reckon if it was just for show you could get a flat head steel nail and round the pointy end off with a ball pein hammer i wouldnt trust it to ride on though
