I also like those meaty tires and wheels. Looks muscular.

The only time I've ever been pulled over was in the blandest car I've ever owned, a grey Chevy sedan. I was driving late at night through a rich community, on my way home from college. My tag light had burned out. Got a warning.

I've rocked 15% window tint on my Yaris for nearly 9 years now and have never been pulled over for it, or anything else. I haven't been pulled over since owning the car I had just prior to my Yaris.

Now that I've said it, I'm sure I'll be pulled over the next time I go out.

15% is a stretch I'd never push past 20% rear and 35% front but then again I'm blind as sh*t at night anyway lol

Dang, isn't 50% the legal limit for front windows in Cali?

It's 33% in front in Arizona, and no limit on the back. I like it around 35% all around. I don't like the "darker in back" look... which is what my Yaris is now. I'll get it re-done eventually.

I've always heard that no tint is allowed on the front windows in CA lol. Never actually dug into it and confirmed, but as I say, I've never been pulled over and I've stopped right next to police cruisers at red lights many, many times.

I'm currently rocking 20% all around and have had zero issues with local police. From other local forums I've heard that it isn't an issue unless they pull you over for being a dbag and they want to nail you with something then they'll throw that into the mix of tickets.

That said apparently 35% up front will never get you a ticket. Our provincial law isn't based on a set percentage, more of a cops discretion sort of thing and 35% according to police is not a problem.

20% has the car cabin much cooler in the summer and blocks the rear headlight glare quite a bit. The only issue is reversing on non illuminated lots or streets. Just need to be super cautious of surroundings that's all, you can still see out back.

I was told that the official legal limit in Ontario is 20% sides and rear with 0% on the front. I agree the cops really don't care that much, unless they've already pulled you for something else.

A buddy of mine did 30% on his BMW 540i, and IMO it now looks like a crack dealers car. I think you can sometimes go too far with this stuff. :-)

I think you have the numbers backwards. The percentage is VLT (Visual Light Transmission), the amount of light that gets through. 70% is barely noticeable, below 30% makes it difficult to see into, below 20% can make night driving difficult. "Limo" tint is 5%.

Most places allow tint above a certain line on the windshield, usually a little more than the sun visors cover. Nowhere I'm aware of legally allows tint on the main part of the windshield, at all.

Maybe we need a "Please post pics of your Yaris with aftermarket window tint here" thread.

Ha, no kidding.

Colorado is a strict 27% on ALL windows. no metallic/mirrored film. no red or amber colored tint. the police have this little laser tester that they hold up to your glass for testing.
I have 15% all around, so does 200,000 other people. limos have lots of mirrored tint, so do Mexicans. I think it's a "secondary" law in this state, like seatbelts. you can't be pulled over for it, but it can be an add-on violation.
seriously, you can't get pulled over in Colorado for only seatbelt violation!
we also do not have a helmet law for motorcycles. only eye protection is needed.

[SirDigby]

Guatemalans? what percentage is "trash bag?"
j/k

[derickveliz2]

Last time I was down there, my sister's car had 5% all around and the front windshield was 30%, man driving at night was like driving with sunglasses, and it was really bad in basement parking lots.

They do this for security reasons.

D.

[ern-diz]

30% on the front windshield?? Now I know that's not legal lol.

[SirDigby]

my argument is: "well, is it illegal to wear sunglasses wile driving?"
I think it is safer to tint windows and have a clear windshield. also window tint is a safety device for side impact. :o

Maybe it's because here front windows and windshield ting are illegal, but whenever I drive to a town where people have tinted all around, I can't help but think they don't care about their own safety and basic driving courtesy. If I can't see if there's someone in the driver seat of a parked car that looks about to take off (front wheels aimed out), I have to decide wether to ignore it or to slow down/make room for a sudden move of the other car. I don't mind a little tint tho, just as long as I can see you when I'm wearing sunglasses myself, safety factor isn't compromised.
