the backing plates are formed which gives them alot of strength and they don't really have any load, i've had 1/4 and 3/8 deflect (twist from hard braking and rub full time) i'd either go thick material and machine it or go 1/4 but box the design so all your edges are flanged and boxed, wouldnt hurt to toss in a rib or two if you have a friend with a decent sized press(100 ton or so)
