I've got 20 percent on mine. It's lumar film. It's couple of steps below legal in my state but, it still has that smoke look to it. It's not black like limo tint so, it still looks like it could be legal.
As far as the carbon rims go. I have seen a pic of some not sure if they were the ones your talking about but they looked like a bad idea to me. If it is just a carbon cover over an aluminum rim thats super lame. If it's a real carbon spoke section mounted to alumn. center and alumn. bead section I would think that the bond would eventually fail due to the stress and the differences in thermal expansion in carbon and alumn. Even if they bolt to the bead section I would still like to see what they have done in the center section.
But, to each his own.
