Default What tint are guys using and why?
Trying to decide which tint film to use for my RS. So many options it’s mind boggling.

In Toronto, I've got Pinnacle One 30% on the sides and back and it's a good compromise between privacy and not being too dark (and still legal).

i like 3m Color Stable Series. Non-metallized , not too expensive and it looks good.

Not advertising and don't have the film, but I just saw Xpel released a new film that claims 98% heat rejection across the entire line of tint (5% - 70% light transfer). Might be something to look into if heat rejection is something you're interested in.

I got llumar ceramic tint 15% .. live in FL and unfortunately, my car is parked outside in the burningin sun 9hrs a day at work so it was worth it to spend extra for Ceramic. At least car is in garage when I'm at home
