there is no such thing as a regular factory tint.

depending on where you live, i would go as dark as possible.

on white cars generally I like them to be smoked, so I'd say around 20 or 30% .. not limo because I think it's too much of a contrast on a light colored car. Also if you have dark interior having a 20% tint could make it look like 10% (if that exists) or limo even.

just my .02

just keep in mind, the darker you go, the harder it's gonna be to see at night.

20-35% is pretty average.
If you know anyone in your area with tint ask them if theyve been hassled by the cops for it.

I dont think I would go any lower then 15%, thats cause I like to see at night, already have some trouble on my 20%...
