which wheel for a tandem TT

We've got our first 'open' TT next week on the tandem. Wondering which front wheel to use, want to go fast, but don't want to break anything. Race is 10 miles on smooth roads. Tandem is a fairly solid lump, team weight about 130kg. Choices are:
40spoke, suzue hub wheel with 25mm gartorskin tyre, box rim.
specialized tri spoke, 19mm tub off my solo tt bike, apparently they are bullit proof but really don't want to break!
36 hole rsx hub mavic sup4 box rim, with michelin pro race 2 23mm.
32 hole dura ace hub on mavic open pro with vittoria corsa 23mm.
Kysrium elite with michelin pro race2 23mm.
