I asked for as dark as legal which is 35% in Tennessee everywhere but the windshield. I got Huper Optic Nano Fusion Ceramic tint including clear tint on the front windshield. It keeps out UV rays & heat keeping the car much cooler & protecting the interior & me much better than regular window tint. More expensive? Yes. Worth it? Definately. One of the best desisions I have made on mods to my car.

REALLY depends on your state!

In the past i played around with 5% tints, 20% tints, 28% tints, 35% tints.

I have gotten so sick of getting pulled over i know use a 28% tint all around. but not every tint shop sells that shade. I think it has a classy look over a darker/sporty look.

also tints look darker on the internet. part as to do with people posting there car in a darker setting from a angle that gives a darker perspective.

That white camaro above was taken on a day where there was no sun out. His car would look lighter tint if there was a lot of sun light. so keep in mind though factors when looking around.

had 5% all around except front on my S10 back in the day, to be honest, that was just dangerously dark. Like rolling windows down at night to pull out into traffic.

When my ZL1 arrives im gunna go with 20-30% probably.
