Window tints on a black evo

I'm taking opinions I like being able to see clearly, my last car i had limo tints, and that not happening again, but i wanted to get peoples input, keep in mind this car gets parallel parked it doesn't just sit around, so tints or now and what percentage recommendation?

+1 20% should be good

- Plus add on some 24 hour security living in Newark (Stolen car capital of the world ). I used to live up there and almost got my GS-R stolen like a bazillion times. So I said F NJ and moved to Boca Raton and ditched the GS-R and got the Evo and couldnt be happier

20% is ghetto when do you see nice high end cars with that junk? 35% max dark tinted windows is 1990...eww. I bought my car with 20% and made them remove before I would by the car.
