If you lace the dt swiss hubs to high profile rims they will be plenty strong, the only issue will be crosswind.
How much you weight is also quite important, at 160 pounds I had to true a 24h radial front wheel quite a few times, mind you, alu ~25mm profile rim with dt swiss rev spokes, not the best wheel setup. For ease of mind I would go 32h, I find my Mavic open pros laced to Phil hubs with the same dt swiss rev to be the right compromise between stiff and compliant.

I see thanks, I am a similar weight and have had issues with a 24 radial coming out of true a fair bit, but these were very cheap wheels, so the better components could help here?
Unfortunately my budget is not going to stretch to Phil hubs as much as I would love them, would you recommend another hub that would support the 32 at a similar budget to the DT Swiss?

It would be 90% street riding with the odd commute thrown in, do you reckon in this case a different hub that can support 32 would be a bit more bulletproof long term?
