so im going to take my truck in to get the front windows tinted and to have a 5% brow put on the front but i was wondering what stock tint ont he back is im hearing 15 and 20 from different people, i was looking at cjs4444
who has 15% on the front and they look like they match really well but then again its a picture and might be fof in person

 

pictures are hard to tell. my front looks tinted, which it is but its light. i think its 35% but im not sure. and i dont know what my rear is. from stock the rear is around 20% and ive heard most people are happy with that. when i get mine done im just gonna tell the dude match it to the back, i dont care what percent it is...just match it up

 

I put 35% on my front so I could see my mirrors better when towing my car trailer at night.
20% would be about a perfect match to the rear windows.

 

if your wanting to match the stock tempering, then you want 25%...15 is a really good look though, it almost matches the back window and 15 over the back two will be as dark as you want

 

Isn't the stock rears usually around 18%? I've heard that several times. Some shops have just said around 20% some have told me 18% and I think I've read that too. I say just have a shop put a meter on it to check it out and then put whats close to that on the front. I'm not sure that you will get a perfect match but you may be able to get it close. I think even the factory tint is too light. I had 5% put over my factory tint.

 

i was also told 15. i thought it was going to be light, but when it's on there it darkens up quite a bit. i got the sides and brow done and left the rear alone. i think it turned out good. one thing about driving at night though. you get a reflection of your dash lights in your driver window. super annoying when i first got my tint, but used to it now. i imagine with darker tint it would be more prominent.

 

so a 15 would be good? i drive mostly at night so im not tooo worried about it matching like that but i dont want it to be drastic if i went with 15 on the front and also anyone know how far down the brow can go in michigan

 

i'm pretty happy with mine. i currently don't have any pics of it, but i'll post one tomorrow if you want. personally, i think ifi did any more than 15 i would have hated it.if you drive mostly at night i think 15 would be your limit. oh yeah and looking at your side views to back upat night with tint is sometimes a nuisance.

 

yeah if you dont mind posting a pic that would be great i just dont really want it to come no where near matching and then have to pay to have it redone but if your happy with 15 i prolly will be do

 

15 is going to be really dark and hard to see out of at night.
35 is the legal limit in most states for the front side windows. I have 20 on the Mustang all around, but 35 on the front of the truck so I can see my mirrors better at night in the rain.
