Varies by state, do a search. In MD, it is 35% so that's what I went with. I didn't really want to be hassled by the cops and with a dark car and dark interior, it looks much darker than that.

Given the option of not being hassled, I would have gone with 20%.

I don't have tint, but by law, the tint guys can't install anything darker than what is legal in their (your) state so no worries.
good tint places dont care what the laws are at all....they will do whatever you ask

35% is the legal limit in IN

For the record, according to these people: http://www.tintcenter.com/laws/NY/

NY tint law is 70% which is all but not there. No matter what you'll be breaking the law so go for what you want. At 35% they might hassle you less than 20% but either way they're both illegal.

they can install any % tint you want. theres no law against it, you just have to sign a release that says you understand the tint is under the legal %





I understand they do, but they aren't supposed to, at least the few site I looked at said they can't.

Wisconsin law is 35 in the back and 50 in the front. I never had a problem with my srt. I was pulled over a few times for my exhaust but they never said anything about my tint. I had 20 all the way around. If I were you I would wait until it gets warmer. Also, if you dont want to go to dark but want a nice looking tint go with 35 it will look darker just because less light is coming in because your windows are so small in teh back.
