235/65 17" load rating OK?

Need new tires on the ML430. Thinking about using a good quality 235/65 17" Goodyear triple tread. Load rating is 1900lbs compared to stock which is 2200lbs.

I don't tow or pull anything, never really even have passengers. This is the wifes SUV and it will never ever see off road and maybe a few weeks of light WV snow.

Ideal is to get a lighter tire to save on brakes and help with MPG.

Wasn't 235/65 OEM on some ML's? I know that they are OEM on Porsche.
