What's the terrain like?
If it's fast open road with a decent surface then I'd (be terrifically predictable) and go for some nice deep carbon rims as they make an outstanding noise when you are moving fast, and I'd order and pack some spare spokes of the correct length so as to minimise the risk of the bikeshop not having any.
My Nemesis to 6800 wheelset is designed to be the strongest wheelset possible- as Tester says the Nemesis was the rim of choice for Paris-Roubaix for many, many years, which is good enough for me.
