what grade of Alloy for brake brackets

Need to make up some brackets/spacers to move rear callipers out to suit a 300mm disc conversion, was going to make them up in aluminium but unsure of what grade to use would T6 6082 be ok.

When I was at Autosport I saw that burton and quite a few others selling weld on "ears" to fit different brake types....I wonder if you could use any of those....seemed to be everything available for atlas etc linked to mk1 and 2
