Hey guys, im getting my tint done today and i wanted some input on what to get. I had a 4dr ram and had them tinted pretty dam dark and at night i had to roll my windows down to be able to see. Whats a good percent some of you guys have that you can still see at night fine?

I have 20% on mine and it's not too bad. I can still see pretty well at night. I posted some pics on here yesterday if you want to check them out.

Mine's 32% and with the black interior looks darker from the outside. I think it's a perfect mix of dark and light. I can see at night and it looks good and cuts the glare during the day...

I have 20 percent on mine and think its just right. No issues at night or with the law.

I would say it depends on the laws in your area and how strict the cops are. I used to have 20% all the way around on my Camaro and would get harassed about it regularly. I got 35% on my G8 and I havent had any problems yet. Its legal in the back but not the front here. But I got my medical waiver now so they cant mess with me anyway.

I have 20% on the sides and 5% on the back window. It definately makes it darker with the back window but not bad. If I'm in a pitch black area, I do roll the window down to back up.

18%. I usually don't have a problem but on occasion I need to roll them down.

I have had tint on my cars since I started to drive. I still have yet to tint my G8. I still need to get around to it.

At first, it will be weird riding at night with tint. But, you will get used to it. There are a lot of benefits to tint. One of them being that your car will be cooler in the sun. Also, at night the car lights behind you won't drive you crazy.

Oh sh*t, I've just talked myself into getting mine done. I will be doing it soon.

This is mine at 32%. The shots weren't taken to show tint so they're a bit crappy. The last two were taken with my iPhone.:wacko:

thanks for all the pics guys, i went with 20%. 32% seemed a little too light for me.

The 32% looks good to me. I need to get mine done. I located a well reputed window tinter not far from me.
