These are reliable, strong, decent seams and not expensive. Again make sure you have them adjusted correctly. If you
are looking to save money consider the Quality Brand wheels with cheaper Shimano hubs and Velocity NoBs rims as an option. You could spend more for butted spokes and more expensive hubs but without knowing if/when the wheels need care it’s a waste of money.

I appreciate the reply. The hubs were greased and adjusted properly. They had approx 3k miles on them. I think the pits were more casting voids than wear n tear.
I'm checking out different options, also keeping an eye on CL and ebay.
