Default Headlight Tinting

Any of you fellow Ohioans have your headlights tinted or use tint covers?

I am getting 35% tint on my side and back windows today and am thinking about tinting the headlights.

Now that I am paying attention to it I see more and more cars and trucks with tinted headlights, even though it is illegal in our great state.

Do you think I am pushing my luck with the cops?

P.S. After two longgggggg weeks and over $7,000 I am finally getting my baby back today.

I would suggest going this route. Don't go too dark and it shouldn't cause you any problems.

I used Lamin-x.com headlights tint, their darkest color which I have only reduces light output by 10%. But that's on my front lights, I don't have my taillights done.

I run 20 all the way around and haven't had any issues. I would think you would be fine.

Oh and I have 20% on the fronts and 5% on every other window and I've only been hassled once in a ritzy area so you should be alright.

I don't know if you're still monitoring this thread, but if you are, I have a great alternative for you. I didn't use tint on my headlights. Turns out you can buy headlight bulbs with different colors. I have them and think they're great. The company's name is LUMINICS.
Do a web search for that company and check out their products. Then let me know what you think.... good luck.
