Default 15" to 16" Rims

I have a 2005 FX4 Level II with 15x7 rims. I am wanting more ground clearance what can I expect if I go to 16x7 rims?
Thanks,
Gary

Nothing...

You need bigger tires for more ground clearance.

Basically you add a inch in total diameter so if you were to run the same size tires, youd have 1/2 inch more ground clearance. Definitely do tires
