Middle GA weather in winter (tires Question)

Ok, This is my first winter with the 8 and I was wondering if the summer tires that come stock on her are a problem in these mild winters (all my previous cars have had all-season tires, and this is as far north as I've ever been, I'm originally from PR)
So, how do all of you handle winters here in the SE area, tires wise?

Do you get winter tires even though it almost never reaches freezing?
Do you get all season tires for the winter?
Or do you drive with the summer tires with no problems?

I'm with TA. I've had no problems on the Potenza's or my Yokohama's in the winter time. Just takes a little longer to heat them up for safe spirited driving. I'm going into my 3rd winter with the 8. I drove from N. Ga last winter when the big "freeze" hit and had ice everywhere to Mid. Ga to get to work/school and had no issues.
