Plastic Nubs are simple and pretty slick, but they make driving the bot a little harder and there is the small chance that you'll tear something on the field or snap one off.
I like doing teflon "scrub" wheels. They are mounted inline with tank-style wheels and give it good stability driving in a stright line, but slip when you're turning.
