Basically Im not asking for specifics at this point. Im wondering if theres a ratio that is generally accepted that you spend on your wheelset vs overall build cost IE: I spent $1000 building this so I should spend at least $x amount or x% on a wheelset. Any less and I wont get all available from my build. Anymore and I wont see any improvement over the less expensive set.
I really don't understand your question. How much you should spend on your wheels depends on what you want out of your wheels and how much you can afford to spend, which can vary a lot.
