I would think that the plate would be a little shorter from front to back so smoke could go around. Maybe 1/2 to 3/4 inch shorter. You would still want them to be same size to fit in the side rail assemblies. I would also suggest maybe 1/4 inch thick of maybe alum. or another light metal.
My ultimate solution was 2 layers of this.
It works great, Greg. I wrap the rack in foil and stack two layers of tile on that.
