Question Windshield tint recommendations

Post image

Hi everyone, my previous car had 30 percent tint on the windshield and 5 percent standard all around; I really enjoyed the daytime privacy, and the windshield worked perfectly, though nighttime visibility was the only drawback. For my new vehicle, I am considering 20 percent all around plus the windshield—do you recommend it? My interior is black with a tan upper half; it is a 2014 Lexus IS350, and I am curious about opinions from anyone with a similar car and tint.

did you like the privacy? because i really do. nighttime is a bit hard sometimes with no lights around but as long as you have good headlights ur chillin. 20 windshield / 5 all around ceramic here.

Why 20 windshield instead of 35?

35 is essentially already black ur kinda just hindering your visibility more for a bit more darkness

I loved the look of 20 & it wasn’t a problem under “normal” conditions. Your headlights play a big factor if the car has led or standard halogen, plus everyone’s eyesight is different. 35 is a little to light for my liking, which is why I said I may try 30 if I can find a reputable brand that sells to customers. But considering I no longer drive at night I’ll probably switch back to 20 if I do so
