Aero wheel upgrade help needed
I’m finally at a point of upgrading from the factory wheel that came with my bike to some entry level aero wheels(staying around the $1,000 price range).

I could really use some help/advice

Below are the wheel sets that I am considering(along with current price)

HED Jet 6 Plus Carbon Road Wheelset(3)-$899.99

HED Jet RC6/9 Plus Wheelset-$1,050

Flo Aluminum + Carbon 60/90-$948

A little bit of background
-The bike is a Specialized Tarmac Apex Mid Compact w/ some aero upgrades

-Most of my riding and racing is in Texas; some terrain is rolling hills, but most is flat with winds coming off the Gulf of Mexico

-My main race distance is 70.3

Any advice is much appreciated!!
