buying a 1998 S10

well i found a red 1998 S10 mint condition with 67k on it standard 4cyl LS. im looking into upgrades for it i want to drop it about 3/4 with some 18s or 20s. do some basic bolt on's like cold air and exhaust. what would i get getting for MPG does the lowering kit help or hurt MPG ? what do most 4cyl that are lowered get? thanks

well lowering doesnt really affect mpg. Does it have a manual or automatic? that will be what affects mileage the most. Is it ex cab?
e fan, cai, under drive pullies, wait4me tune and exhaust will have the most benefit

20's will hurt your mpg most likely.
