Spa Cycles for Exal and Rigida rims, £20 or less each: https://www.spacycles.co.uk/m2b0s116p0/Parts-and-Accessories/Components-Wheels-Rims
Spokes, check Spa's prices since you'll be paying postage anyway, weigh that up against Cyclebasket's 21p ACI DB spokes.
Leaves about £140 for hubs, which is way too much. I'd get hubs with disc mounts so you can use them on a non-rimbrake bike later or just have more buyers if you choose to sell. Shimano XT hubs last ages if cared for. Another good option would be Hope Pro 2 or Pro 4 hubs, and your own set of cartridge bearing tools.

Any recommendations for a good wheelset for my commuter? Wide rims to use with 32mm tyres, rim brakes. No heavy touring wheels please. Budget 200 pounds, cheers!
