Ok, so what's the real difference between replacing your floor boards with aluminum ones compared to the ones dipped in plastic (I've seen on e-bay) or wood?

Does it really make a difference? If so, then which do you recommend? Also, what's the deal with perforated vs. non-perforated floor boards?

Thanks!

a good original wooded board does the job just fine.
