For the actual wheels, if you go this route I'd get something like a pair of HED Belgium rims laced with high quality spokes to a pair of decent hubs as your "strong" wheels (even though at your weight you aren't going to be abusing wheels too much), and then maybe something like a pair of HED Jet 6s for your deep aero wheels. You can get both sets for under your budget.
