Some people have had good luck with the elites, but I'm unimpressed. They fall out of true pretty easy and just aren't anything special. See what psimet would quote you for xr300 rims w/ quality hubs. Simple build, but it could be very stiff and just as light as the ksyriums.
FWIW, my rear ksyrium is getting replaced by a psimet pt wheel in the next few weeks and the front will follow sometime over the summer.
