If desired you could get "mountain bike wheels" in a 700C size. I'm currently talking to my LBS about doing exactly that, since my commute has led to popping several rear spokes (which I'm starting to get sick and tired of). I think they said something like 700C Alex DA19 rim with a Deore hub. for less than $80 (rear only).
