Have never used them but Mason Hunt wheels seem to be a popular choice for budget wheelsets at about $380. For $500 you can get a custom wheelset from Colorado Cyclist with DT Swiss 350 hubs and R500/R470 rims which is what I'll likely be doing soon.
Yeah, I checked those wheels out at Colorado Cyclist...even using the same build info their price is cheaper than prowheelbuilder, plus they have a 10% discount going on right now (code: SUMMER).

I mounted the Gravelkings today on my existing rims so I figure I should try these out first before I look at spending $500 on wheels.

For fenders, it seems my options are pretty limited since I'm running 38's. Since people use the mud butlers here and have good things to say about them, I think I might try those out and see how the kiddo does. Worst case scenario I can add a strip of leather like a mudflap to the rear fender.
