You can get the checkered and if they are too abrasive, just take some fine sandpaper and knock off the points. Just very little sanding, just the very tips of the points.
This will still give you a good grip without giving you road rash on your side.
I often times don't bring the checkering to a full point for this reason, plus it's a bit more durable if you bump up against something, your less likely to knock of the points more than you'd like.
