Coleslaw Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 I live in CO so you can have 27% all around and 70% on the windshield or as dark as you want in the back and 70% on the front sides. I want to do 20% all around but I don't want to have to deal with getting pulled over all the time. Do you think I would get bothered much with 20% or should I just go with 30% so I don't have to worry about it? How dark is 30%? Anyone have pics of their cars with 30%?

dubknight Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 30% is decently dark but you won't be WOW'ed by it at all. The laws about window tinting here in Oregon suck hard. 35% is the darkest you can legally go on ANY window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bignickk Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 honeslty ive never seen a cop pull someone over JUST for tints. my friend got a tint ticket, but thats cause he was drivin like an idiot lol. so if you drive normal, they wont bother you. atleast thats how it is by me 2000 tahoe orion hcca 15.4 kicker zx2500 2 JL 300/4s infinity and kicker mids/highs KHC1400 in back, stock upfront dont ask about my HU clarion EQ kicker/fosgate rcas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamHT Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 I've seen many cops in many states pull over strictly because of the tints. Especially once its at the end of the cycle, have to make that quota. It's your choice, because frankly, how are any of us going to be able to advise you of how local police will act in your area? I'm sure every PD is different, and every officer is also going to be different. I have 5% all around on my SRT...I am stopped constantly and just pay my tickets. Every other vehicle I drive follows the law and I still get pulled over. It's what you're willing to deal with. And trust me...it can be a lot. Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

Like not turning off your fog lights if there is oncoming traffic just like the law for high beams basically (Which no one does at all in every place in the states I've lived, and they shouldn't have to they're hardly distracting) When I got pulled over for my tint I was driving to the grocery store with my mother, driving normally. Stock car, no mods whatsoever except I had 20% window tint. I was at a red light and a cop turned his lights on and I was looking around for who he was trying to pull over. I was floored when I realized was me. Guy was a total prick, started telling me off about his safety is compromised by my window tint and blah shit blah. Hands me a $389 fix it ticket.

jmilch Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 I've been pulled over probably 15+ times in 10 years, and never had an issue with my tint. I have limo all the way around, nothing on the windshield. It is against the law in MI, but I have never had a single issue.

TeamHT Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 I think the law is stupid as well, and have tried to get it changed in my area...no luck as of yet. I can understand safety being an issue BUT! If this is truly a huge safety threat, then isn't pulling someone over strictly further tint like walking up to a lion and slapping it?
