What's a good 700c wheel with a flipflop hub?

Particularly, one that has some kind of adjustment spacers to get the chainline straight. I'm looking to spend ~$100 and I'd rather just get the whole wheel/ wheel combo since the bike currently has heavy steel ones.

whatever cheap rim/formula hub you can find should run about 75 and should be good enough.
