J, I don't know anything about those wheels, but I certainly hope your LBS is helping you deal with the issue.

In any event, I'm a big fan of custom wheels. A master builder will be able to build you a great set of bomb-proof wheels fit to your specification. He (or she) will take into consideration what kind of riding you do, what kind of ride you'd like out of your wheels, your weight, etc. In my opinion, while there are some great factory wheelset options out there, you typically get more bang for your buck with custom. Depending on what spoke you choose, they're also a lot easier to fix and service.

With advice from SadieKate, that's the route I took a couple of years ago, and I love them. There any any number of builders out there (wheels are easy enough to ship so you don't have to go local, although local is nice, too). If money is a concern, some Mavic Open Pro rims coupled with Ultegra hubs, while not the lightest or sexiest wheels in the world, will last you a very long time.
