Overkill or underkill?

I am getting close to the point of mounting a 9 foot aluminum roof 
tower with a C4 mounted about 3 feet above.  I am going to use 
threaded stock (3/8 inch) to go through the roof into a 2 by 8 going 
across the rafters.

My question.  Is there any advantage or disadvantage to using 
stainless steel threaded stock (and where can it be obtained) as 
opposed to using normal 'hardware' store grade threaded stock which 
will be painted with rust inhibitor paint?

Bruce, WA3AFS
