According to the product specialist

Pros
The low weight makes these wheels highly suitable for climbing.
The cup cone bearings are very durable and easy to maintain.
The asymmetric rim design used in the rear wheel provides a high degree of stability.
Thanks to a combination of low weight and a 45 mm half-high rim, the Zipp 303 Firecrest Tubeless Rim Brake wheels are all-rounders.
Tubeless tyres can be fitted to the rims with or without inner tubes. This makes it possible to ride tubeless, with advantages such as lower rolling resistance, better grip and more comfort.
The Zipp ZR1 hubs, developed in Germany, have bearings with a good seal and improved durability. The 6 pawl body engages super quick, resulting in minimal energy loss when the rider starts pedaling.
The Zipp ShowStopper brake surface ensures smooth braking in both wet and dry weather.
Lifelong guarantee covering all manufacturing errors, excepting wear and tear. Ultimate certainty!
These wheels definitely win the beauty award for their shiny carbon rims and simplicity in decals.
Due to the rim height of 40mm, the Wind 40C wheels are very versatile; high enough for aerodynamic advantage, but low enough for use on windy roads.  
The sealed industrial bearings in these wheels run smoothly and at the same time are well sealed against water and dirt.
If you're looking for lighter weight, improved aerodynamics and good braking performance, this is the way to go.
Cons
The internal rim width is fairly narrow at just 15 mm. This means tyres of 25 mm or more won't fit quite perfectly onto the rim.
Due to the carbon rim brake structure, this wheel is less suitable for long mountain descents, with a risk of blowouts or rim deformation.
These wheels cannot be made tubeless.
The carbon braking surface makes this wheel less suitable for long mountain descents with the risk of a blowout or rim deformation.
