Default How is the LS460 RWD in the winter?

I am considering replacing my GS with an LS460. In Edmonton area so most years a fair amount of snow. I have not driven RWD in the winter much in several years but my wife's Infiniti M Hybrid was awful, due mostly to the funky traction control system. Any thoughts on the LS?

I put on blizzaks on mine and have no problems at all, this past winter (albeit very mild except for the infrequent heavy dump) was the second winter ive driven mine. Handles very well imo for a rwd.

Where about in Canada do you live? I had a RWD GS350 here in GTA and didn't have many issues other than this one time when I got stuck on a patch of ice coming out of a parking lot.
If you are in GTA, let me know if you need help looking for some winter tires. I might be able to get you some good pricing on good winters.
