... i'm thinking of going against my better judgement and opting for spoked rims for my latest hot streak build.
Question is, which do you prefer 36 or 48 spokes

There is not a huge difference in strength
I use 36 spokes on my bikes

36, you have a far wider choice of hubs.

I intend to do alot of park stuff on them but not sure i like how cluttered the 48's look to the 36's

Just run decent modern higher pressure tyres on them and 36's will be fine ;-)
