what do you guys think of 35% all around, 35% on top windshield and 70% on entire windshield?
I don't like tinted windshields since other drivers can't see ur hand signals,or make eye contact under many conditions,especially at night. Here in NYC tint laws are enforced with an Iron fist and I would never get them on my car. My biggest problem with overly dark front window driver and passenger side is the same as the windshield,you can't be seen at all way stop signs or in traffic,so know one knows if you see them or not.

I don't know, but personally I'm not for obstructing your forward view any bit than what the factory might put on it for you.

If you get 35% it is almost like your throwing away your money. I have not had time to tint my ride yet but I would go with 5-20%. On my old car I had limo tint all around probably got a total of 3 tickets at $ 25 a piece and I was never pulled over, I had the car for well over 7 years. But, then again depends where you live I'm in Chicago and cops are little busier with other things then worrying over tint...........

ya imho, i wouldn't get 35%. its almost nothing. i think between 15-20 is the best because anything darker makes it really hard to see at night and anything lighter is like its not even there.

I dunno what you guys are talking about. I don't think my 35% looks bad at all. At night time it looks twice as dark.



I live in Ohio and cops don't have anything better to do. Guy my dad works with got 20% the day after I got mine on, week later he got a ticket and had to get it removed. The legal limit is 50% here.
