Use screws and you will screw them up:)
No clamps for me, I like to weight them down in a bed of thickened epoxy. As Jay said, never had to replace a rim and never have any problems.
On another note I am trying two seadog hatches on my latest build. Rims are fine but the covers are a blend of hard and soft rubber/ plastic.
