Driving IS 250 in the snow
I am planning on driving from Los Angeles to Park City, UT in my 2010 IS 250 (RWD) next week. There is a likely chance of snow. I will mostly be traveling on major highways, but I am concerned about safety. I am an experienced snow driver but I usually am driving the RX.
I know that there is most likely not going to be enough clearance to put chains or cables on.
Hoping that someone out there may have some advice...
Has anyone attempted driving this car in the snow or putting snow cables on it? How did that go?

I would definitely check your tire treads above all else. RWD + bad tires + ice = a road accident waiting to happen. Just saying.
Like ppl have said driving super slow and taking extra caution are a must if you have to head out under such conditions.
Good luck to you!

Never be the early one to get on a snow laden highway. Let the salt trucks get there first, followed by other major trucks, etc which will melt the snow.
side roads on the other hand? be very careful.
