Ally nuts & bolts are a definate no-no for that kind of high-stress application, unless you want to get yourself killed. Stainless isn't too clever an idea either. Why not replace them with genuine replacements?

Hardened aluminium alloy on the rear renthals. Despite being lighter than steel, it's still pretty soft so you won't get a long life out of them compared to the steel sprockets, especially so if you have V twin or a really torquey bike.
