Basically you have 3 choices,

1 large head rivets which will spread the load.
2 normal rivet with a washer on the back(as per Ash) this works well.
3 special rivets called peel rivets which peel down like a palm tree,this are very good but are best used in places you cant see them as they are quite ugly,(riveting the underside of fibreglass side panels to the floor is a good use)

here are some links on ebay uk so you can see the different kinds
