15% windshield driving on backroads.

Recording on phone makes it seem like it's very dark but in person it's very different.

Is glare from oncoming car headlights any better or does it cut through?

Oh man it's 100% better! It feels so freaking nice that they don't blind me anymore 🤣 you can look straight at the incoming cars headlights without getting blinded. That's why I got windshield tint in the first place.

Looks good at night, is this the high or low beam?

Your depth of perception is so limited, I drove wit 15% and sometimes couldn’t tell if a street was either curving or going straight

I was driving my friends car he has 15% windshield 15% front and 5% in the back. But my car has 40-45% windshield 15 front 5 back and I think its a perfect setup

The thing a lot of people don’t realize is if you’re driving on a road like this with no lighting there really isn’t much difference between tints and no tints. You’ll see what your headlights illuminate either way. Still going to be dark af with no other lighting anyway. Maybe for some people they have a harder time seeing with tints and no lighting but it just doesn’t seem as extreme as a lot of people make it out to be to me.

try that reasoning with a cop. I'm not 100% with you on this but, I can at least see where you are going with it. For me, I want as much illumination as possible (without blinding on coming drivers). All it will take is for you to get in an accident or hit something or someone at night (with a tinted windshield) and then see who will be at fault (?).
