I am finally getting my windows tinted tomorrow! I was thinking of 5% on the back and 20% on the front. No matter what the fronts are not legal in Michigan but Ive always gotten them done anyway. I may go with 20% back and 35% front. Any sugesstions on what I should do?

Pics would be cool!
 


15% is what i had on my car. its light enough that they can see through to you in the daylight, but at night is darker than hell. i loved it.
 


20 or 15 all around. I'm with bio, you need to be consistent all around...i did all 20 even though the little corner windows in the rear doors they apparently put 5% in.
 
20% or slightly darker! I went with 20/35 on my 01 Monte and I was so mad I didn't listen to everybody on the forums when I got my tint done. Everybody said go darker than what you are thinking you wont be disappointed. I never had an issue with the different tint levels. But I do wish I went darker!!! (I've seen a number of threads people like me made a thread and didn't listen to the people who already had tint and said go dark) So now that its coming around the time that I need to get them retinted I think I'm going with 20% all around including the strip on the front windshield.

Long Story short listen to the people and don't be like me and wish later on that you went darker.
 
everyone seems to agree with 15 or 20. and yes do one shade all around the car. i have 20 and im happy with it. ive driven cars with every shade of tint possible and 20 and 15 is easy to see out of and plenty dark. 5 and 10 too dark and 50 is a waste of money
 


1 shade all arround. if i was going, id go 25 all around. i have 50 (dont yell, i didnt do it!) all-arround and im satisfied. dont bother cops, looks decently dark at night
 
Yup I am with every one 15-20% all the way around. its light enough you can still see out it at night and when backing up.. If you really wanna go dark 5-10% all the way around just a bit harder to see backing up at night some times youll have to roll your window down to better judge how far cars are from you when crossing some streets. or to see them dang bike riding idiots at night
 
Well its getting done now. I went with the 35% on the fronts and 16% on the back. I would have liked to do the same all around but I truly can't chance it with the stickler cops in my area. I've had these shades before and I was happy with it. I'm just happy to finally have tint! On a black car it will look good either way.
 


Yep, 20% all around here with Ebony leather/suede interior.

Different colors look like **** in my opinion.
