Thats out dated, now the darkest you can have is 20% on the front sides and 15% on the back. I had 20% all around mine at first and i still thought it was to low, i later got 10% all around and i never got pulled over once for it

Yeah I live in MD and have 25% all the way around, any darker and you can't see at Night...that and you can get away with it if a cop pulls you over...he can't tell the difference between 25% and 28%...
