I had a set of Centaur hubs built up on aeroheads and they are holding up just fine.. It is more the builder than the rims.. If you want something a little more robust, look at the Fusions or Deep V's if you don't mind a few extra grams..

The DT Swiss RR465 are a nice rim, similar in weight class to open pros but a little stiffer.. Do not even bother with open pros, too many issues with the newer models cracking at the eyelets..

If you want something to train on off the shelf, the Aksiums have held up well for me. Campy wheels like the Khamsin are pretty stout but Campy wheels have a tight bead and it is a pain getting tires on and off of those rims..
