303's are great wheels, a standard for cyclocross where 25mm tires would be narrow. Tubulars aren't the same as clinchers when it comes to matching tire width to rim width. I like Vittoria Corsa CX at $50 each, hard to beat. You can save $15 and go with the Corsa Elite. If you can spend more then the Veloflex Carbon and Continental Competition are nice upgrades.
