Im dropped on S Techs, window tint is 35%...but the back passanger rear window isnt tinted
barely looks tinted... does 35% even help?

its hot as ***** in fl i went with 5-6% limo tint to keep the car cool and a strip up front cause i dont like wearing sunglass's

i thought tucson to be even hotter, and more of a need for nice dark tint


cheers!

Paint it correctly and you wont have a problem with brake dust.

I have my stockers painted black with a wheel protectant/gloss clearcoat over it (multipl coats); the outcome is the wheels are gloss black when clean, and simply flat black when covered in brake dust. I love how it hides the brake dust compared to my gold volks, so much that i am sanding down the volks to paint them identical to my stockers.

Here are my stocker, AFTER 25k of driving, PAINT HOLDING UP GREAT!
