hey vtechnique1x1, I have the same rims, but I made the mistake of ordering them online. When they were shipped to my house, the tires looked like nothing more than rubber bands. You seem to fill the wheel well nicely, what size tires do you have?

I chose 20% because it's perfect for me. Didn't want it too dark but dark enough to not tell who's in the car during the daytime and especially at night where it's impossible to tell.

hey there i know its off topic, kinda, but when you got your rims did you get the TPMS..or are you riding with the tire pressure light.. im not sure what to doo. i dont want the light on but i dont want to pay 600 for sensors and 100 every time switch the wheels for season

i had 20%s all around except the windshield for about a year i had my car and had gotten pulled over too much. it deff looks the best out of all the tints. 5% is just too dark and hard to see at night sometimes. i was going to get 35% in the front and 20% in the back at first...but my friend that has a white coupe said it doesnt look right with the 2 shades of tint.....whos got a coupe with 20% in the back and 30-35% in the front??? PICS?!!?

i want to go get my weather strip tinted black today. i just called the place....$35 is a steal around Jersey!!!!!

I've got a theory that it depends on the color of your car. I've been trying to decide whether to go with 20's or 35's, and my roommie keeps telling me to get the 20% tint (which is what he has on his red Mazdaspeed6). I'm thinking, though, since my car is white, that I don't need to go as dark to get the same visual effect.

Now, I don't want to deal with the cops, and he's been pulled over once for tints (managed to get no tickets, as his passenger was a cop's kid).

What are your thoughts?
