Question What is your tint %?

What up guys. I just bought an evo and am planning to tint all of the windows.
What percent should I go with for a more darker tint but not so dark tint.... <//~~~ I don't get it either).

If its not too much trouble, can you guys post a picture with the percentage of your tint?
It would really help me and a lot of other guys figure out what tint is best for them.

Thanks in advanced guys!

Sorry right now I don't have a pic. During the day I think my 15% is perfect. At night it's not that bad, the only time it comes into play is when I have to back up but then I just roll my windows down and use my sideview mirrors. I you were concerned I wouldn't go darker than 20%

15% all around. didnt get anything done on the windshield. pretty sure the law in MA is anything on the back 3 windows, but driver and pass windows have to be 35% or lighter. havent had any problems with the law yet (concerning the tint atleast...hehehe)

Tarmac Black. Any suggestions?
The legal limit in California is no restriction for the rear windows as long as you have two mirrors (passenger & driver) and a 70% up front (hardly a tint at all).

So... How dark should I do the back windows, being that I only can do the front so little, that won't flat out destroy the look of my evo?
