If I had a vast disposable income, loads of time to train and was racing at a decent level then yes, carbon wheels and tubs would probably be on my list of upgrades. As it is, Mavic Aksiums and Panaracer clinchers will have to do.
The key is to have enough wheels with different tub tread patterns to suit the conditions. Carbons may look flashy but not when you are sat on your backside because the tub has the wrong tread.Unless you have money burning a hole in your pocket the advice would be to get good quality non carbons at half the price of carbons. Then you have more wheels for the same financial outlay giving you more tread options.
