I am looking to get a tint done on my windows and in Massachusetts the legal max is 35% for the sides and 50% for the back (i want to keep all the windows the same) so 35% max. I know there are dif types "colors" of tint out there i am wondering if anyone had a type in mind that they were realy pleased with?

If this helps any my car is a gold tan color and the interior is the same

Thanx for any suggestions

get at least 35% smoke tint all around. having different percentage tint in the back will look bad, imo.

I have 39% reflective tint, check it out on my homepage.

that sounds kinda strange, wouldn't it be 50% on the sides and 35% on the back?

Anyways, I have 20 or 25% on mine (can't remember). I wouldn't go with anything less. I think in NJ 35% is legal limit. What I do is if I get pulled over, I turn on the dome light so the cop can see inside from his car.

Never thought of that. Great idea to keep in mind even though I haven't been pulled over yet since I've had my 35% tints

yeah, i agree, i have 35% all around, the guy at the tint place talked me into it.. and i must say it sucks they are way too light. i'm gonna take them off this summer and get it redone.. 20's on the side and 15on the back

SUPREME_GTR

you read my mind dude...the best combo ...20 sides and 15 rear
35 is just to light

I have to agree, but I dont have money to waste on getting the tint off and putting darker

I agree!

35% = Add another mod to your max!
20% and darker = Pay the cops salary!
--- I go with option 1

--removing my 20% this summer and putting 35%

I like my 20% all the way around. 15% in the back would look good also. Don't go lower than 20, if you do, you're just asking for a ticket.

if youre planning on getting 35% tint, since its the only "legal" percentage allowed in your area, i suggest you dont waste your money. theres no point. i got 5% tint on my side and rear, and 30% on my front windshield. granted, i cant see whos inside my car while i'm driving at night, its the ****. as for "laws" regarding tint - if i ever got pulled over for some crap like that i would easily fight it and win. so many stock cars/trucks are comin out with 10, 15% tint, not to mention that mirror tint on almost all mercedes SUVS and other SUVS. i dont know man its your call. also, a lot of you people dont understand what the percentages actually mean. 35% is the lightest ive heard of and it lets in 35% of the sunlight. thats the lightest, and the deeper the tint the lower the number. (sorry for those who understand that, but im sick of seeing people say they have "50% tint" what the **** is that?!
peace

most of the time its only the front window tints that are illegal... you could paint your rear windows black if you realy wanted to (in IL at least). how muct tint is put on stock SUVs and such? anyone know? i think thats the perfect amount. you need to be able to see out of the backseat at times, but you still want the good looks

i live in iL. and im not sure what the legal limit is here, but i have black 97' SE with black leather. how do you think 30% all around would look? except front windshield ofcourse. i dont want anything super dark, but i want it noticable and to give my car a nice sleek look

5%,15%,20% & 35% are the normally accepted percentages you have to choose from.

I have 15% smoke on all my sides & rear, 35% clear on my windshield. I like it just fine. I may get pulled over, I may not. It's too damn HOT in South FL & the Max is like a greenhouse with all that glass.

Sounds like your decision will be between 35% and 20% on the sides. You can still see into a car with 20%, but as you've read here, many people think 35% is just too light.

Your decision should probably be based (at least partially) on local law enforcement's tolerance of illegal tint.

As always, YMMV.

I understand the situation.. I like 20%.. but I just don't wanna get a ticket for it... fighting the ticket will not always grant me winning it... so i'm gonna stick with 35%... 35% is dark.. but not too dark.. i don't want it to be massively dark no one can see in my car... 5% is a lil too dark.. but hey.. your mods.. your money... hehe!

I agree, I'm just tired of paying the cops salary! With my 20% you can still see inside a little, but that just gives them a reason to pull you over, then if you're not nice, gives them a reason to give you more tickets, therefore, putting more money in their pockets...F%@K that!

5% all the way around thats what i did

This link should help you understand why people don't get the darkest tint and why you can't say to the cop, "that 2003 car has it dark, why cant i?"

I don't think that site is too reliable. It says no tint at all is allowed in NY State.
