Velocity Dyads or Mavic A719s are about as bombproof as you can get, particularly with 36 or more spokes. I put 36H Dyads laced to Ultegra hubs on my commuter/touring bike with no problems. Tires also will make a difference; something wider will hold up better to potholes, etc. I've got Conti GP 4 Season 28s on my bike, but you might want something wider and more flat resistant if you jump a lot of curbs and hit a lot of potholes.
