Im riveting on some over to my car and I'm not really confident in the size rivets I picked up. They're 1/8th rivets but my worry comes from the stress thats already on the over fender because of the size wheel im running. Should I go bigger to the 3/16th? Thanks.

why would your wheels be stressing your fenders?

Because I'm bowing the fenders so they can fit the wheels.
