You will want to upgrade your tires to something more stick and or wider, while super fun you will destroy stock tires if you get on it at all. Before swapping tires just see how they do on your driving habbits though.

Key is keeping on top of every single thing that needs doing, engine and SC oil/filter especially.
Thanks for the info - that's exactly the sort of stuff I was looking for. Incidentally, which aftermarket bearings did you go with?
