    Just had mine done this week, simply matched the fronts to the back as close as they could. I can tell a difference from inside(the fronts are now a little darker) but from outside they pretty much look the same. They're 25%

    Besides the obvious asthetics and the aforementioned cooler cab temps in summer, another benefit of tinting the front side windows is it cuts down on the brightness of the headlights behind you reflecting off your side view mirrors directly into your face. Also, helps protect your interior fabrics and plastics from UV damage and / or fade.
