often clyds don't have issues even with low spoke count wheels, sometimes they do... and if they put enough miles on them with enough abuse even the best wheels will eventually pop a spoke or come out of true...
i've been as high as 340 and gotten hundreds if not thousands of miles out of stock machine built wheels (32 spoke in most cases)
so in short you may or may need a new wheelset, don't just jump into buying one right off the bat if you don't need one.
