Personally I would not use adhesive as an attachment, by itself. I would use an additional fastener that is appropriate for your roof material. I am a bit confused when you referenced a rubber roof. From your statement does that mean there is nothing that the rubber roof is adhered too? There is no substrate? If there were then you would be able to install a fastener or into a nearby roof rib. If the answer is for the latter, yes, then I would use adhesive and fasteners in conjunction with my solar installation.
Failure to properly attach a solar panel put them at risk for taking flight. Whazoo recently lost a solar panel due to it desire to fly off on it's own. It is unknown to me of the mechanics it was attached and or whether it was applied properly as I am told it was installed by the manufacturer of his TC.
Also, I would never ever use plastic for the brackets/feet of a solar panel. Mostly due to the issue of cold and UV degeneration.
