According to the product specialist

Pros
Nice sound due to the hollow rim structure.
The wheels are tubeless ready, so you can use them without inner tubes.
These wheels have no maximum rider weight; thus super strong!
The Shimano Ultegra R8170 C50 wheels are lightweight, reliable and fast!
With a weight of 1562 grams, this wheelset is one of the more lightweight ones available.
Comfort is achieved by a wide, 21 mm tubeless rim. It's suitable for tyres with a width of 28 mm or more.
The wheels are also tubeless compatible. Riding tubeless with latex reduces the risk of punctures.
Unparalleled handling in terms of steering, and the sensitivity to wind is very low. The wheels feel like one with the bike.
The focus of the Shimano Ultegra R8170 C60 Disc wheels is on maximum speed and rigidity.
The wheels have wide 21 mm tubeless rims for comfort, and can accommodate tyres with a width of 28 mm or wider.
With unparalleled handling and steering, and super high wind resistance, these wheels feel as if they're one with your bike.
The cup & cone bearing system requires little maintenance to be very durable.
As these wheels are tubeless compatible, the risk of a flat tyre is minimised when you ride with tubeless tyres and latex.
Cons
The set is a bit heavy for a carbon wheel set.
The Dura Ace 9170 C50 wheels take another 100 grams off the wheels, for the real weightweenies. It's bearing quality is also one more step better.
The weight is a fraction higher than that of the Shimano Ultegra R8170 C50 Disc wheels.
