Thoughts on this wheelset? Is it even an upgrade?

Vuelta Corsa SLR:
Vuelta Corsa SLR Road Wheelset

They're $279 shipped for the set, under 1500g, and they look pretty nice IMO. I'm wondering if it's worth it to upgrade my stock wheels on my Emonda ALR 5 to these. The ones I currently have just have "Bontrager TLR" on them, which aren't even listed on Bontrager's site, and I can't seem to find any specs on them, but I imagine they're a little under 2000g, given the "Race TLR" are over 1700g.

I want something lightweight that's going to improve the ride quality when I'm on some rough roads. The stock wheels aren't too great.
