I'm also 220lb and a seasoned weight lifter. I absolutey thrash the balls off my bikes day in and day out. As long as you stick to smooth roads and maintain spoke tension, you don't need these overkill wheel sets.

I wouldn't suggest curb hopping anything.
I went with the Blackset24 with the Dura Ace hubs. They were $480, worth it IMO. Very strong 32 spoke pattern and not too heavy at 1620 grams. I plan on keeping these....at least the hubs, for a long, long time.
