The web site has changed, but the HED web site used to have specs. on the rims, with lower claimed weights for the Vanquish Pro vs. the Vanquish Performance. But based on the total weights for both, the difference in performance would be insignificant.

I have both 40mm and 60mm versions of the Vanquish wheel sets, plus an 80mm Vanquish rear wheel. The 60mm version is a little more sensitive to wind, but I haven't found it to be problem. But some riders are more sensitive to cross-winds than others. I race criteriums with the 60mm front and 80mm rear in all wind conditions, and never found cross-winds an issue. (This includes racing at Ninegrit park, which New England racers will tell you is wide open and always windy - and with an 8 corner dog-bone shaped course, has a cross-wind almost half the time.)
