Why riders like you need to go aero, and wheel weight doesn't matter ? and how the wind tunnel proves it | road.cc
Weight! I live in a very hilly terrain and weight is very important.

My standard is that aero is good but not to the point of adding weight to be more aero.

Edit- I also found the tire information to be biased and useless!
