Avery, and others offer a dimpler that you use with a pop riveter. Available for both #40 and #30, these work great for places like this. They are also great for those rivet holes closest to the trailing edge on the rudder and elevator skins that are difficult to get with the C frame.
You could also bend out the ribs enough to get the squeezer in and then just bend tham back. This method also works fine.
