I have seen both designs work effectively at pushing. Aka S.P.A.M. this year and Cyber Blue in 04. I personally like the rough top it's better for turning and still gets the power to the ground. I am not sure which cost more but I am pretty sure rough top is cheaper. Also if you don't have a big budget I would not recommend treads.

my two cents,
