First step is to check what is legal. In indiana, any tint at all that isnt manufacturer/dealer installed is illegal.

I have 15% all aroundcurrently but used to have 20%. I loved them both, and honestly you can't tell much of a difference in them, they're both pretty dark. Just check w/ people in your local area and find out if there's much trouble w/ the law, because you don't wanna get the tint and keep getting tickets for it.

Laws vary from state to state. But I have 20% all the way around. It's perfect. Not too dark, not too light. I can see fine at night time, and nosey people can't see inside my car in the day.
