Pitfalls in replacing OEM tires?

My original OEM tires for my Yaris Hatchback are worn out. The original tires are 175/65R14 81S. I've done a lot of research and I think I want to replace the old tires with Hankook Optimas H727 size 185/65 R14.

Is there anything I should watch out for in changing the size slightly like this? If I go to a regular tire place, rather than the dealer, do I have to worry about the TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) being set correctly?

Some places offer free wheel alignment or a free wheel alignment check with a tire purchase. Is this free wheel alignment or alignment check a good deal? Are the wheels on a Toyota Yaris Hatchback usually misaligned?

Any other advice?

Thanks,

RMcG
