I live in Charlotte, NC and just got my windows tinted and ordered a very dark black out kit for taillights and side markers/reverse lights. They are strict on window tinting, but you will be fine regarding the tail lights.

when registering in NC, an initial inspection is not required. It's not until you renew your tags that it needs to be inspected.

NC legal tint is 35% as stated above. If close to the limits, most inspectors will put a meter to it to check legality. Cops have become increasingly stricter as far as window tint goes. The dark lights I wouldn't worry too much about as long as you can tell they are on while out in the daylight. NC does not do a sniffer test, but they do a standard OBD2 plug in test. Also a visual inspection requiring Cats and what resembles a "muffler." Some inspection stations interpret the laws differently then others.
