Mga paps, need naman ng advice.

I have a 1 year old l200 pickup 94 model. Gusto ko mag-upgrade ng mags. I really want to try a Tall pickup and soon a lowered pickup na parang kotse na yung porma.

My nakuha akong Strada mags with 205x65x16 tires. while my stock rims are 195x65x14. If my budget nga talaga, montero mags talaga dapat kukunin ko.

But as I did my research, malaki din ang cons ng upgrading tires, because of additional brake and suspension load. Meron din nagsabi na mas-lumakas ang fuel consumption when they have their tire upgraded.

Plus, gagastos din pala ako to have it lifted and i-cacamber pa daw.

with the ever increasing gas price, mas prefer ko un tipid but gusto ko talaga sana yung mataas na parang off road or pang-baha.

Ang initial plan ko is to have it lifted 1st and in the future try ko naman un lowered.

Questions:
Would you advice my to have it lifted, or istead of lifting it, settle na lang ako sa masmaliit na tire 155x65x16 and have it lowered instead?
If i decided to have it lifted, magkano kaya magagastos ko?
any recommended shops na magaling dito sa sm north area? Sabi ng mekaniko kanina, di daw lahat marunong nito and maselan.
if I decided to have it lowered, how much un cost?

Excited na ko ipaayos to tom, but now napapaisip ako.

Salamat sa magbibigay ng kaninalang expertise.
