Deep V vs. Sun M13/CR18 vs. Mavic Cxp22

So I'm looking into building up a new wheelset for my fuji. I'm caught between the Deep V, the Sun M13 (a narrower version of the CR-18), and the Mavic Cxp-22s. I'm looking for a very tough and sturdy rim that can carry my 200lbs over the *****ty roads of brooklyn and manhattan. I don't have the money or time to constantly be bringing my wheels to be trued so I need something tough that will last me. I like the Deep V because theyre supposed to be one of the toughest rims available, but they are a little pricier than the others, heavier, and a little played out. The Suns look fairly classy and are inexpensive, but I dont know how durable they are. The Mavics are sort of my last choice between the three, but they seem to be tough and relatively light, and fairly inexpensive. The wheels will be built with DA hubs and dt swiss spokes. Thanks
