1206 resistor typical inductance
All major manufacturers have some application notes that give information about resistor parasitic inductance or RF behaviour in general. For small SMD resistors in MOSFET and IGBT gate circuits, it can be simply ignored. Pulse power may be an issue, depending on the MOSFET input capacitance. There are considerable differences in pulse power handling of different resistor types. The topic has been discussed at edabord before.
If you're targetting to a MOSFET with a few A drain current, 0603 should be still sufficient.
