Default tint question. opinions please

so i am gonna get my front windows tinted this week. i took my truck to a tint shop and the guy told me that my back two windows are 5% and my back glass is 20% i told him that i wanted the fronts matched to the rears and he said he thought i wouldnt like it. that i should go 20% on the fronts. my only thing is that i think it will look weird with the fronts being lighter than the backs. what do yall think?

I believe the back side windows are only 20% factory, unless someone put more on before the truck got to you. You should be fine with 20% on the front.

Here's an idea of the tint. I have 20% on front windows and 40% on the back. There is a difference but its not that noticable unless your in the sunlight. As soon as i figure out how to add the pic to the thread directly heres a link.

I have 35% on the front 2 windows and 20% on the back 3 windows.. I wish I could go 20 all the way around but thats because I dont want to get hassled by Johny Law.. What are your state laws when it goes comes to tinted windows on trucks??

My front windows are darker than my back ones, it was that way when i got it. I'm going to go a little lighter bc at night it is almost impossible to see out of the front windows. I hate it, just something to think about.

I am running 20% on the front and the 20% that I put on the front matches the back factory tint pretty good.

I have never heard of anyone having tint law problems here in Oregon, the cops seem to like it themselves.
