Rims for a Carpe Diem

Hi,
Recently got a Airborne Carpe Diem frame, gonna use it as a light tourer,and commuter. The drivetrain will be XTR, the shifters and hubs will be Durace. I am no expert. My dealer likes Sun Zero rims, but I'm not sure that would be my best choice. Oh, one other thing, I weigh about 240 lbs, and the first tires on the bike will be Ritchey Tom Slicks 700x30. I think the Mavic CXP33 looks cool, but Gary (dealer) says they are a bit narrow for big tires. I have been looking into other suitable rims, and have come up with a list...
Torelli Master
Velocity Dyad
Sun CR18
Would appreciate any thoughts you might share.... TIA!
