Should I get 5% tint?

Thanks for the input guys, I will ask the tint guy too and see if he knows lots of people that get pulled over with it.

my denali has the 25% over stock and 35% on the front windows
my tahoe has matching front to the stock tint but I have the back glass at 5%

got 5% on all even over factory rear, no problems at night--reverse camera

gonna do the windshield next, gotta decide on 35% or 50%, think 35 might look too dark from outside with how dark the rest are

I personally have 20% over the the driver and passenger window. The rest is 5% over the factory shaded glass which now equals 1%. The law in Texas is 25% on the front windows and the rear I beleive is exempt.
By the way your driver and passenger front windows usually do have a factory greenish tint. You think is clear but lets say you add 25% your could be at 20% so you need to check. Go any darker and you will not pass your yearly inspection.

got a tint ticket in Hurst,Tx,pulled me over and the meter read 4% he said it had to read at least 25%, he didnt say anything about no front license plate or my back up camera drilled into my back license plate
ticket is $207 or pull it off and the judge may or may not dismiss it
either way I can get it re-tinted for $50 bucks

In getting tinted right now doing 5 percent over the rear window which has factory tint then doing driver n passenger 50 percent. I don't want any problems.
