That person doesn't list the bolt pattern or tire size which is stupid considering how important it is for proper fitment. For 18's you need a 50 series tire or else your esp is going to go crazy. If you want low pro's then get a 20" rim with 40 series tires. Also make sure that tire is for trucks and not a car tire.

ML55 came stock with 18's, so it shouldn't be an issue. Low pro might leave too much space in the wheel well, then you have to lower. Personal preference, but lowering the right way can run into some $$$.
