I'm looking at wheels for my Ti road bike. A friend can get me a deal on Shimano tubeless wheels, but I have a SRAM group and find tubeless to be a bit odd still (maybe I will convert?). Have also looked at Williams and am considering building Open Pro/King or Rolfs ( a bit out of my budget, but super hot).

I am broke from buying the bike, so I don't want to spend much more than $500-$600, which I know isn't much for wheels, but I hope to get something used and upgrade in a couple years. I am hoping for light-ish, durable and probably not carbon since I'd like to stop in the rain.

The title, personal shopper? Well, since most of you are like women who like to buy shoes/purses, except you're dudes with shaved legs and a bike habit, I figured you might need a reason to look for stuff you don't need without any guilt.

Help a woman out.
