Build my own. A zillion options and everyone has a different opinion. You want nice, CK hubs, DT double butted spokes, Open Pro Ceramic rims. 28c max tire on those rims. Last you a very long time. Rims like those will tour fine at your weight, especially if you go light. 32H, 3 cross. At your weight, you could tour fine on boutique wheels for that matter. Just keep it under 30 lbs.
