What rim for a 700C X 32

Like the title says, I am putting together a second set of wheels for winter/ bad weather and all around hard use. What rims have any of you had experience with good or bad? The hubs are 32 hole. Thanks

My Mavic MA3 have survived 3 years of daily use with 32mm tyres.

I seldom see them for sale around here. I've never heard anything bad about them either.

I'm using Mavic T519 36 hole rims with Panaracer Pasela TG 700x32 tires. The T519s I built up were NOS, replaced by the T520 and then by the A719 (current production). They're all really stout rims of excellent quality.
