I always recommend the Roval CL50 wheelset. They spin up fast and are super durable. If you wait until black Friday they are normally 25% off.

I would take a look at these from Light Bicycle. I'm totally biased(to be honest) and have purchased 3 of their wheelsets. They make very good quality rims, and you can have them built to your specifications. It might take 4-6 weeks, but sometimes it's less.
$1100 for a 1423g 56mm deep(23mm internal width) wheelset

I have the same hoops with DT Swiss hubs. They are a little heavier, but I weigh 84kg
