StumpJumper Conversion...What Wheels?

While I am fully aware this is the roadie section, I tried the cyclocross forum and its dead over there. Wondered if anyone here might have an idea...
Already looking at the winter and trying to get a rig good to go for the season. I have been interested in possibly getting a "beater" cyclocross bike so I can take curbs, trails and snow in the winter with reckless abandon, but there is no room in the stable right now for an extra frame.
Coming from a mountain bike and road bike background, I have been thinking of getting some cross wheels for my Specialized Stumpjumper for winter commuting.
A. Will this work? Is it compatible?
b. If so, what's a good strong cross wheel that won't break the bank?
c. what size tires?
Thanks guys and gals for any help you might be able to impart,
A
