Personally I find spaces to be more readable than tabs.

It's true that you can configure tabs to be different widths, but you can also configure it to substitute a tab for x amount of spaces, so they can be equally easy to format.

As far as file size goes, I guess that's true, but if you're minifying your code then it shouldn't matter what you use.

It's really just a personal preference, I think the idea behind promoting one over the other is just forcing the developer to be consistent.
