Shimano wheels are usually pretty solid and reliable, and their hubs roll well. With the deep rims you will get some aerodynamic improvement, which will probably not be noticeable except on fast descents. I would not recommend carbon rims with carbon brake tracks, as they require special pads and still don't brake as well as aluminium brake tracks, especially in the wet.
