From an aesthetic and practical standpoint, what % window tint do you feel is ideal? And why?
On the hot summer days the cabin is like a greenhouse. If I'm wearing shorts and a tee shirt, my legs, arms and neck get sunburned.So I want to have my Honda Civic's windows tinted. I am considering buy these window tint film 35. https://www.hexautoparts.com/shop/wd05028-2ply-window-tint-film-roll-35-shade-20-x100ft-1820#attr=
My 2022 civic came to me with "15% tint all around." It was my only experience with (noticeably) tinted windows.
Thoughts: It looked terrific aesthetically (from outside the car). It stopped my arms and neck from getting sunburned. It was a little tricky seeing out the side windows at night. Also, I loved the fact that people could no longer just look into my car at traffic lights etc.
Some seem to like "20% on back windows with 35% on driver and passenger side front windows."
If anyone has that I'd love to hear your impressions.
Only tint to whatever the limit is in your state, or the police will have a legitimate reason to pull you over at any time. If you go darker than legal, it's on you.
Good quality tinting will reduce heat regardless of the % transmission. The quality of the film (and the installation) is the most importantly thing. I don’t know tint, but that product does not strike me as being the good stuff. If it starts bubbling it won’t look good no matter what shade it is.
But to answer your question, go with the lighter one.
