I have a Felt z85 road bike that I bought about 4 years ago. Looks like the rims are getting thin and I’ll need a new set soon.

700c wheels needed. Mostly a commuter bike. I used it for some training, but nothing intense. 60 to 100 mile rides occasionally. Never race with it. I put about 200 to 300 miles on it a month, sometimes more. I run 25 tires.

I’d like to keep the wheels under $200. Any suggestions?
