Re: wheels with or without nubs or clips...
Caps are easier to find for the nub style.....in my opinion.

Re: wheels with or without nubs or clips...
A couple other things to consider - the nub style are probably years newer than the clip style and may be in better condition. The nub style are "usually" welded together, while the clip style are frequently riveted together. This may or may not be a problem with future leakage. And lastly, the nub style may have "safety beads" pressed into the rim. I've never seen a clip style wheel with this feature. The safety bead is a depression in the rim that holds the tire on the rim if it goes flat. Early wheels have one bead on the front side. all newer wheels have safety beads on both the front and back of the rim.

Re: wheels with or without nubs or clips...
As stated, the nub rims are easier to find caps for. If condition is the same, the hubcap factor should be enough to decide.

Re: wheels with or without nubs or clips...
I like the top version best as well. I'm most curious about that unusual camper shell you have installed!
