caad 2 wheels, whats the deal...buy new?

I have a caad 2 that is in quite good shape, I got it when I first started riding a few years ago, but now have some platform pedals on it just to ride around town.

When I first got the bike, me and a friend that works at a shop completely overhauled the bike (repacked the bearings, cleaned everything, etc.) The wheels are some mavic shop builts with 105 hubs, but original to when the bike was first purchased.

The rear wheel keeps coming out of true for some reason, I have had to get it retrued about 4 times in the past 2 months, but at this point am at a standstill. Should I buy a new wheelset, and if so what are some good cheap wheels that will fit an 8speed cassette. And if not, what the heck is going on with my rear wheel?
