Default Tint at night

Hi,

I would like to tint my windows but im wondering if it sevearly cuts visibility at night. Im going to use a 25-35% tint.

Thanks
Jeff

If you were getting something really dark like 5%, it would cut your visibility a little bit. But with 25%-35%, you will be just fine. I have 10% on my car, and everything is fine. Good luck!

i have limo tint of the back side and the back, and 1 up on the door windoes (its a coupe)....if its black all around you,you cant see out of it, but if theres any little bit of light (which there usually is) you will be fine..i live in the county and its all dark, and its fine, never had a problem with it, and even if your backing up, the revers lights are brite enoph to make it so you can see fine.....i no when i get it tho, the guy was freaking me out saying im gunna get into a accident and stuff cuz its so dark, but my friend had it, and its no problem, even my dad thought it was gunna be darker...get it,you wont have a problem

i've got 5% on my car, and there are times at night when i can't see a damn thing. that's when it's time to roll down the windows before you hear the horrible crunching sound of your back bumper hitting a huge truck parked behind you. other than that, there isn't much loss of visibility. go with the 5!!!

I have 20 on the back, 5 on the sides, nothing on the front. Tint + spoiler = kind of obstructed view, but I got used to it really quick

I've got limo on the back windows and 20 on the front. Only problem I have is backing out at night. Rolling your windows down and sticking your head out works just fine, though.

So let me get this staright. 25% should be okay for night driving, without having to stick your head out the window while backing up?

Its really not that bad. If your reverse lights work, you should have no problem backing out at night.
