The KHE tires doesnt have that deep threads so if your riding dirt i would maybe choose table tops or small block 8´s if you can get those in 24"

I only suggested the KHE's because of their low weight.
Those tyres are very good aswell.

because i am coming from a bmx so it wont feels as weird riding bigger wheels and i just prefer 24'' in general as they are easier to chuck around and so on.

For a light build...
Frame: NS Suburban 24" 2008
Forks: Black market contraband fork 2.49 lbs
bars: black market badabing bars
Stem: black market underboss stem
Front hub: NS simple 9mm roller
Rear Hub: Hope pro 2 trials
Front rim: alienation runaways 500 grams
Rear rim: alientation runaways
Front tire: KHE Mac2 park
Rear tire: KHE Mac2 park
seatpost: federal pivotal seatpost
Seat: federal slim seat (lightest on the market right now)
Pedals: wellgo mg-1 with ti spindle
cranks: demolition medial LT 2.0 with ti spindle

with this build and no brakes the bike would be around 21 pounds. but that would be nuts. The bold are the ones i suggested, so most everything

another option would be schwalbe table top tires. thats what i run, lightest tire if you still want the option to ride dirt.

i was just making the most lightweight build i could think of above.

i use the NS district high rise, heavy but feel soo good. my bike is only 24 pounds with a brake so i don't really mind the heavy bars

oh, i had a point of posting it but forgot to say it.

to the original guy, since you didn't list brakes and you want 24's and since your doing a custom wheelset anyway you should get a capital, its such a nice frame!!!! i had a sub 26 and this thing is alot more fun

If i had that bike i could make it a fair bit lighter in my opinion...
