Nylon! Lasts much longer than wood (so you save cash!), and you never have to worry about a chipped stick tip on a ride cymbal. I also play darker cymbals, so the nylon tips add some extra clarity rather than the dreaded “ping.”

Wood, specifically oak. They give a brilliance similar to nylon while maintaining that wooden warmth.

It depends on the sound you want for a mix or live setting.
