The difference of these tires is only 0.3mm in diameter, therefore the difference in the speedometer will be despicable.
You should experience a discreet reduction in consumption with the reduction from 255 to 235.
But I do not know if it's possible to fit 17-inch wheels in ML because of the size of the brake assembly.
