Poly handles better, it does. But it is louder, more expensive, and harsher riding. If you are under 40, drive agressively, don't have back problems, and/or don't mind a few "squawks", do it.
Rubber is cheaper, quieter, and smoother - you'll notice a difference on potholes and such. If you mostly cruise, stick with the factory stuff for sure.
My advice. Probably not worth much, but FWIW I have installed . -Wakeman
