According to the product specialist

Pros
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.
Due to the low weight of 1550 grams and the semi-high 40 mm aerodynamic rim, the SC 40 wheels are great allrounders
Vision wheels are completely handmade and use is made of self-locking spoke nipples, so a perfect spoke tension is guaranteed.
The 19 mm wide tubeless ready rims ensure lower rolling resistance, more comfort, more grip and better puncture resistance.
The wheels are fitted with low-maintenance industrial bearings which are well sealed against water, sand and dirt.
This top class wheelset is the best you can get from DT Swiss, thanks to its extremely low weight of 1486 grams and very good bearing quality.
These wheels are suitable for Shimano and SRAM XDR thanks to an additional body that is included in the box. The body is easy to change without tools.
The DT Swiss 240 hubs give you a hub system with smooth-running bearings and a good seal, which guarantees a long service life.
Thanks to the ratchet body system the wheels engage fairly instantly, so that you can speed up quickly after a turn.
Thanks to DT Swiss Pro Lock spoke nipples, your wheels maintain much better spoke tension for longer.
The Zipp 404 wheels are oriented towards pure speed with their 58 mm deep rims. Thanks to optimum aerodynamics, you can ride faster without any extra effort.
Both tubeless tyres and folding tyres can be mounted on the rims. 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 quickly, minimising energy loss when accelerating.
Lifelong warranty on production faults, except for wear and tear. Ultimate security!
Cons
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.
The decals are not applied under the paint. This increases the chance that, over time, the decals will be damaged or lift.
The carbon rim brake structure makes this wheel less suitable for long downhill runs with the risk of blowouts or rim deformation.
The 35 mm high rim is not eminently aerodynamic. For a more aerodynamic rim, it is best to look at a rim height of 50 mm or higher.
The wheels are suitable for a total weight of up to 100kg. The PRC 1400 Spline 35 wheels are therefore not ideal for heavier riders.
The carbon braking surface makes this wheel less suitable for long mountain descents with the risk of a blowout or rim deformation.
The Sapim CX Sprint J-bend spokes provide more comfort than straight pull spokes, but give less stiffness to the wheel.
The carbon braking surface makes this wheel less suitable for long mountain descents with the risk of a blowout or rim deformation.
