Discount- PRO RIMS: 30% PRO WHEELS: 15%
I've done some math on this and basically buying rims with 30% off, to then get built into wheels with new components, works out very close to a diluted 15% discount they offer on full wheels.
Just to say that unless buying rims to replace/build with existing components then there are very marginal savings to be found.

I came to a similar conclusion when I made an order recently, only thing that made me decide for rims in the end was the hope that I can find the hubs I want 2nd hand.
I do have another full wheel built by LB though and the build quality has been great so that also speaks for getting full builds from them.

I reached out to LB about group orders and asked for a discount. This was mostly to come back here and pretend at being the kind of person who says ‘reached out’. Anyway, this was their reply:
Hi Tom,
Thanks for reaching out.
Our group orders discount are as follows.
Discount- PRO RIMS: 30% PRO WHEELS: 15%
NON-PRO RIMS: 5% NON-PRO WHEELS: 5%
But I can supply you with a BF discount in advance.
A 15% discount for the pro rims and wheelset, 10% discount for the non pro rims and wheelset, 15% discount for the frame, 20% discount for the handlebar and the wheelset with LB hub/DT Swiss 350 hubs.
Because the TPD delivery(tax included) delivery only allows one pair of wheelset to be transported at a time, the freight for separate orders is the same.
Pls provide your ideal build
