Can't help wit hthe tire question but....
I can't help you with the tire question but, having owned an S series for a few years now I can tell you to regularly check the oil, at least once a week until you get a feel for what it uses. Almost ALL S series Saturns use some amount of oil. And being you have the single overhead cam, don't let it overheat as the heads on the SOHCs are more prone to cracking from overheating.
Don't let that deter you from having the car though, keep an eye on the oil and they run quite literally forever.
