I needed an inexpensive wheelset to start longer rides. I just didn't have the $$ for a good set. I picked up the Vuelta Corsa HDs from Nashar for $128 ($159 with an additional 20% limited sale discount). The are working out great and the only downside is the weight, they are heavy. The trade off of not worrying about spokes is worth it. Now I can go on long rides and have peace of mind.

I don't know if this is an option for you....but just wanted to mention it.

Good Luck
