Proper Air pressure is definitely key. Tire composition (soft/hard) will also be a factor in handling and "normal" wear.
It may seem like a no brainer but for those of you that like old school tech I highly recommend a longer service gauge for your pre-trip inspections on any vehicle you drive. On the B it gives easy access to the the stems and saves the knees of us old timers. Almost any brand will do.
And...a larger (like 20) gallon compressor is a must in any home / garage.
