yeah it sucks. One thing I wanted to do to my car when I finally have money for a total overhaul is tint it but after seeing that 50% law I don't know if it is worth it.

Thing I don't understand is how cars with factory 20% (or darker sometimes) get away with it. Not fair I tell you!

Tint would probably look good on it. BTW, looks like some nice houses out there in Wilkes-Barre unless that pic was taken somewhere else.

Definitely tint it.

Our law here in Ohio is 50% but there's definitely no point in wasting money on legal window tint. Especially when you don't have to worry much about getting pulled over. Hell, I stay outside of Columbus and drive have had mine at 7% for the longest.


Do it.

I think its 32 or 33 here in AZ..... I have 5% all around and its a bit difficult to see at night when the street lights go away but during those hot summer days its a must.... Sure Law says 50%, law also says 55mph on the high way, you dont see me doing that either....

4-5 Cars with 5% tint never had an issue and ive been pulled over more than a few times for other stuff.... Go 20% tint if your worried about the law.
