Default Speaker install

I recently picked up some new Kenwood speakers for the truck and plan on installing them on Wednesday. New 6x9's for the front and 5.25's for the rear. My main question is do I need to upgrade the speaker wiring or is it ok to use the factory wiring? Also I do plan on adding an aftermarket amp to run the speakers since I am sure the factory head unit is pretty weak, what's the best way to go about this? Any suggestions on a good amp at a good price?

I have thought about going to an aftermarket head unit but I don't want to lose my sirius radio and my uconnect. I love both features and would hate to have to add an aftermarket antennae and or mic for an aftermarket bluetooth or satellite radio.

Stock wiring is fine for what you are doing.
