There isn't a huge amount of choice in tub rims these days. But you have to decide if you want box/low profile, deeper aero section or carbon.
Most of the tub rims you can buy are either the first or last option.
Depends what you want to achieve, and what you want them for? Racing, Training, 'Tracing'
Edwards sell the only deeper aero alu rim that I know of, no idea what its call, but it looks like a deepv/cxp33 profile, none machined. Ring them and ask.
Road tubs for general training, conti gator skin or vittoria pista for 'tracing'
And, I might be switching to clinchers next year for training, so what hoops says.
