Wheel set?

I'm a fat guy with an old Specialized Allez Elite Triple that was 1k$ 15 years ago.
I only ride 30 to 50 miles a week if that.
I need a new inexpensive wheel set.

What should I get?

Thanks

I hate it when I belong to another message board with similar interests and then find out how much we actually clash.
