if you carry the second set of rims with you at all times then at least you're being safe, but that's a lot of extra weight. if you simply have a second set at home collecting dust then what do you have planned for when you get a flat late at night in the middle of nowhere?
do you have insurance? because insurance, too, is "useless" until something happens. just like a spare tire.

That spare tire with steel rim seems really heavy.. but i am not sure how much gas (in %) can I save by not carrying a tire around
