Does Rubber Make a Pridor Footrest Better for Daily Riding?

[peterwilson11]

I am thinking about replacing the passenger footrest on my Pridor and noticed that some options come with rubber covering. I am curious whether the rubber actually helps reduce slipping when the rider’s shoes are dusty or slightly wet. For anyone comparing a honda pridor footrest with rubber, I would also like to know how easy the rubber is to clean and whether it stays firmly attached after regular use. Is rubber covering a useful feature for everyday riding?
