White tape and get rid of the cog protector on the wheel. I have been riding over 30 years and have never damaged a spoke due to the chain. Just break it off.

What kind o wheels do you want? Do you ride a lot of hills? I am using tubeless wheels that are pretty cool. Don't hold air as long as I thought they would, but are otherwise fine and I am crossing fingers on how well they will be puncture resistant.

Lot's of options out there. DT Swiss are making great wheel sets. I stick with Campagnolo for as much as I can. Well done hand made wheels will go a long way and customized to your specifications.
