Default Different tire/wheel sizes for LS
If LS from factory comes with 235/50R18 wheel/tire, will 245/45R19 wheel/tire combo fits the car?. I understand speedo meter reading and actual speed may vary a bit. Besides that any issues?.

ZERO issues, I just went up to 19s with 245/45/19 tires. They are nearly the same diameter to each other

The 245/45R19 circumference is 1.6% greater than the 235/50R18. Given that most spedometers read 2%-5% fat (by design) you're fine.

Considering that's the exact set up for the F sport there is no issue
