48 hole wheels are heavyer than 36 (obv cuz theres more spokes)
But a 48h wheel will more than likley be stronger and will be harder to bend or bukle.
But it depends what you ride and how you ride (which one you get)

36 has less spokes, therefore lighter, and 36 is just as strong. I think that UnKnowen bike co are even bringing out some 28 spoked rims and hubs.
