its useful to people who do lots of tyre changes to help prevent damage to the rim. so that'd be people who race.

other than that its just tart value. only people who'll think it looks good are other tarts, to everyone else it's just another pointless mod.

if you want rim tape, then it's worth buying.
if you don't want rim tape, then it's not worth buying.

Not just for show. Majority of wheel stripes are reflective so are a good safety feature to be seen.
