You might want to specify what legal limit for you is, most every state has different laws regarding what is legal and isn't legal as far as tint goes.
in NJ no tint is allowed on the front windows.... i have 5% all around
In GA law is like 32%
I got 35 on front & back and 20% on rear. Tint shop said 20 on rear should not be a problem, he does cop cars all the time and that is what they put on the rear

sorry no pix
Legal limit here is 35%. Mine are 20% all around.

i had 35% on the front windows, 20 in for the rest, got a ticket for 250 so i had to take the backside windows out. It looks funny as hell right now with no tint on my back windows...
35% all around, legal limit in Md is 35% so technically i'm over but i doubt anyone will ever notice...
I have 70% on the front and 15% on the rear. I live in SoCal and have heard that 70% on the front is legal-ish. though technically I don't think you're supposed to have anything on the front windows. that said, I haven't been bothered -- yet.
Great post, now we will all know who is running illegal tint, makes it easier to find you and get a ticket.

Well does not matter, everyone braggs about anything they do illegal to thier cars here, so what is one more thread right ?

Tint, exhaust, reflectors, etc...

Great posts for the police to read :lol:

I said the same thing. I had 35% and the law here is 35% +/- 3%. Got pulled over, went to the DMV and measured in at 31%. Got them retinted at 40%, and it measured in at 32%.. lol.

Now I get to do it all over again because I'm getting a new 3. So that means I'll have spent ~$600 on tint between 2 cars.. lmao.

Actually technically I'm legal, seeing that I have documentation from an ophthalmologist regarding my light sensitivity and resulting migraines. But I'd be more than happy to shove that in the face of any cop who really has the time and the nerve to hunt me down over such a minor issue based on a random Internet posting anyway.

Edit: And who's bragging? The OP asked a question. We're answering. Get off your high horse, man.

I guess he could have said everyone "talks"... but then again who really cares.

NC limit is 35% all around. I have 40% which, like sdemo45, brings me to about 32% +/-

Good call, maybe I meant get off his soap box :lol:. Either way, my point was, he comes in here talking trash and making assumptions for no reason. The OP asked a question, we're here answering the question. His post came off to me as more of an attack than any useful contribution to the thread, hence my response. But maybe it's just me.
15% all the way around. im on my second warning next is ticket
