You will need competition bumpers if you're lifting over 400 lbs or so. The large steel hub is heavier than rubber, so the plate ends up being thinner than a solid rubber bumper. Less rubber also means the bounce will be lower and more controlled.

On the downside, comp bumpers are not good for high-rep workouts with low weight (less than a 35lb bumper on each side). They are thin and can get damaged. So if you're unsure, get economy bumpers.
