The profiles of the newer deep section carbon rims deal with crosswinds much better than the old deep section wheels from 10+ years ago. You can easily run a 40-50mm carbon rim these days without any fear of being blown off the road. Couple that with wide internal rim width, 28c-30c tires at low pressure, and your ride quality will be awesome.
