Yup. OP, FSA Omegas are cheap and have been good to my commuter. Maybe you're looking for higher spoke count though. Barring uncommon failures, it's generally hard to go wrong when you get to the $200+ mark, as long as you ensure that the spokes are properly tensioned. Nashbar has a Reynolds wheelset for $180 right now...pay a bike shop $50 to set them up for you, and you've got a solid $230 wheelset.
