20% all around (2 sides + rear hatch) is the best IMO. NO front Windshield!!! That's a big NO NO!

I'll go with 5% all the way around. Maybe a slight tint on the windshield.

25% all around, none on windshield, that's what sunglasses are for.
Although technically I can't have less than 50% on driver/passenger windows... but 50% is pointless. Stupid tint laws.

What % are you guys gonna get for those of you in CA? 70% limitation is just stupid and I'm wondering what % I can get away with.

I've gone limo on every car for the last 9 years. I have not received a ticket as of yet; but I still expect to get one any day. Keeping the phoenix heat out of the car is worth a ticket every now and then imho.
