I too have those hubs and all well so far with about 1000miles on the clock! Not sure if they're designed for radial lacing though, might be worth checking out.
If you're interested in going fast, you'll want to put the deep section on the front - the front wheel is much more critical when it comes to aerodynamics. As RPM says.
Halo aeroedge rims for speed? Only marginally heavier than open pros.

I'm contemplating building my own set of wheels and I've been checking things out. This kind of lacing pattern looks awesome:

and is apparently quite effective for both the front and back (for fixed at any rate). Would look very cool in 32/32.
