Weight on Mecanum or Slide

Hello my team is trying to decide between slide drive and mecanum we have no experience in either of the drives and the way our robot is going to work is our stacked totes are going to go in the front of our robot. I am wondering if anyone has experience in uneven weight towards the front of their bot with mecanum or slide drive and how much we will need to compensate in code or mecanical?

Also we would like to know what your team is thinking about doing between Mecanum and Slide.
