Wheel HELP! Greatly appretiated

Okay guys kind of a stupid question for some but im having a slight problem.

My uncle is getting rid of his explorer and asked if i wanted to switch wheels and tires. I have the 5 spoke 15in. rims and he has some 16in. tear drop rims. The tires that are on his are newer than the ones on mine. My question is should i trade for different rims with possibly better tire tread or not? I kind of like my current rims but i would like a little feedback/advice.

1. My current rims, not the tires:

Keep what you have. Plus when you go to buy new tires, it will cost you less if you have the 15's.
