I'm around same size and I've ridden 36/36 CXP33/DA7600, 24/28 Cane Creek Volos tubs (Velocity rims) and never noticed any flex or difference between them on track.
Ride 36/36 Phils/CXP33 commuting and 32/32 DA/open pro on road bike with silly low spoke RS80s for special and still have never got brakes to rub which 70kg powerhouses claim to be able to do regularly in wheel tests.
Good build with high, even spoke tension should be fine
