the average my guess would be 30-35-ish is the legal limit but anything darker is illegal.

I would search google to be sure. In Ohio it is 50% on the front three and as dark as you want on the back.

some people who will do illegal tint wont give u a receipt so if they a gaurantee that'll fix bad tint and u go back, they might deny u. thats what happened to my friend. but just call tint shops to see what the legal tint is and how much they charge.

HOW REFLECTIVE CAN THE TINT BE IN WISCONSIN?

Similar to sunglass lenses, some tinting film contain metallic elements that help in reflecting incoming light and reducing the glare and heat generated by visible light.

i don't think i wanna tint my glass anyways, i'll leave them plain clear. but, just go to the tint shop and tell them you want your car's windows tinted "darkest but leagal" tell them that. i want my windows tinted as dark as you can make them but just at the leagal mark. they'll understand.

Random Note: Missionary works best in the back of a coupe.
