Alright i made up my mind for rims.
mavic 519 rims
with aluminum spokes and brass nipples
shimano xt hubs
mavic mountain skewers.
Is this all i need to custom build wheels?
What do you think about this for my giant iguana?

Would these be good for xc racing?

Anything is good for racing. I assume you are amateur level. 519's are a bit heavy for xc racing but at that level they should be fine. As far as I know Stans works with all rims...
