YOu're right, they're not super light, but I actually like this wheelset quite a bit. There are others like it but I think it would be tough to find a better set for the same price. That being said, I'd like to use the parts I have as much as possible, so my goal would be to use the hubs at least.
Mavic tech site does not give ERD measurements for rims used in wheelsets, so you must measure your own. There is a discussion here on measuring ERD-

If you're having a shop do the wheelwork, surely they have an ERD measuring device?
