We use Mavic open pros, open sports and IRD Cadence and Cadence Aero rims.
Mavic rims, nice and affordable, great reputation and reliable.
The IRD rims you pay a bit more for, however, they are stiffer and lighter. I have Cadence on my road bike and for climbing in Mallorca, excellent, light, nippy, a joy to ride.
We use RoadAce Components to build our wheels, Steve is the guy who is the builder.
I am considering a IRD Cadence Road to a low-flange hub build. 28 2x or 3x front / 32 3x rear. Would you say the low-flange would be a bad idea with these rims? would they lack stiffness and strength?
