Firstly i would type my words out, come on buddy we aren't 12 anymore.
Secondly i would go with 20's all around and a 5 on the back windshield.



20's weren't dark enough for me so i went with 5's which look pretty much like painted glass, but that's just a personal need of having to go all out.

I would get 35% all around. It's dark enough to shield you from the sun, and not too dark to be a cop magnet. Also smokey quartz goes better with light tint as opposed to pitch black. Check out the Infinitiusa.com website. They have a smokey quartz G on there lightly tinted and it looks perfect.

20s all around, if you have the darker seats there is no way you will be able to see in!

are you in a state where they enforce the tint laws? if so, you can still see inside when having 35% tint so cops might give you a break. it also depends what look you want. if you want classy, get 20% or 35% on all windows, to give a uniform look. if you want a stealth look, go as dark as you feel comfortable.

35% Front windows and 15% on the rear.
I live in Cali and tint laws suck, so i played it safe with this combo. the front doesn't look that dark but works great protecting me against the heat.
