Can if build these up with a touring rim? Or would I be better going with MTB hubs?

+1 re Doug. And FWIW, the next step in progression is to consider 130mm road hubs rather than 135 mtn hubs. Your frame can easily accomodate 130mm hubs. 135s will probably require cold seting and dropout alignment.
