I've got 20% on the front doors and about 8-10% on the rear doors and window.

I've successfully traveled into Quebec and NY state like this many times.

I'd be asking for trouble here. I think I'll be safe with 20% in the back and 35% in the front.

Tint law in Illinois as of 2015:

Windshield Non-reflective tint is allowed on the top 6 inches of the windshield.
Front side windows Must allow more than 35% of light in.
Back side windows Must allow more than 35% of light in.
Rear window Must allow more than 35% of light in.

Combinations:
1. 30-35% in the rear / up to 50% in front.
2. If you have below 30% tint in the rear, you can not tint the front.
3. If you have an MPV, which includes but is not limited to SUVs, station wagons, minivans, etc. and said MPV has factory-installed privacy glass (smoked), you are allowed to have up to 50% tint in front.

I did 20% on the doors and rear window last week. During the daytime it's fabulous but does reduce visibilty at night when looking out.

You can see out of 20% very clearly. Anyone who says you can't must have bad vision in the first place.

i have 15% all around.
have put 15 on all my cars.. but then again here in florida, you can get away with alot of stuff...
i really dont think it affects my visibility at night, or i may just be used to it.

I was thinking 35% all around. Especially with living in NY and how the police are about tints.

So my buddy (coupe) and myself (sedan) were looking at our tints side by side. We both are running 20 in the back and 35 in the front. Both have black interior. Mine looks so much darker it's scary lol. Not sure how.
