Wheel help

Hello fellow vintagers,

I've been slowly restomoding an 86' Tri-Series I picked up off of Craigslist for cheap. I was disappointed in my modern bikes ride and wanted to give a steel road bike a try. I have a steel mtn bike so I figured things would work out the same. Needless to say it is just what I was looking for, I did change the drivetrain to a complete Shimano Ultegra 6600 kit. It's my main road bike so I really wanted the modern amenities.

It's time for another upgrade, how about some wheels. I'd like to build up a light set. I have Hope hubs on my mtn bike and would probably use them on the road bike too. What 28-32 hole rim would be recommended? I'd like to stick with 25 or better yet 28cc wide tires.
