The aluminium parts are tougher and stiffer than the plastic parts. They'll generate less traction, but are harder to break. Basically they are more of a tuning option than just for making your car bulletproof.

I also couldn't tell difference. Nor could my lap times

I don't see how a 0 degree alloy replacement hub will generate less traction? I felt no change when I upgraded, but its just more durable and the ball stud won't get ripped out of the plastic. Optional 0.5 and 1 degree hubs will give more rear toe, which will generate more rear traction or less if used in reverse to remove toe.
So durability, bling factor, and adjustment.

mes is right. In theory you get less grip: stiffer material. But while driving you probably wouldn't notice any difference. More flex (the original hubs are plastic remember?) results in more grip, in most cases. So, replacing them with Alu actually makes the hub stiffer, which results in lower grip. Common sense. But, like I wrote earlier, the average driver (like 99% of the drivers) doesn't notice the difference.
