wheels trading weight for build quality?

ok so here is the deal.. new wheel set coming.. these are hand built DT Swiss 585 laced to Dua-ace 10..1840g but i am now riding Easton Circuts easton hubs..1640g. so im going be throwing a little less then 1/2 lbs on the bike.. rolling gp4000 conti 25mm.. if that matters... even with the 7oz difference i think its best to go with a better wheel set.. but i just taking a pulse here... have any of you folks upgraded wheel sets at the cost of weight for a better built wheel.. oh yea... im 6,2 and 210 or so,, so yep clyde... i now the best wheel set i ever rode was some hand built open pro SUP campy 8's... and those were near 2000g,,,, but i dont know any thing about DT Swiss 585
