20% and I don't think it is illegal in idaho. If you did limo tint they may pull you put over, but not 20% here. Know tons of people with at least that dark that haven't been pulled over.

I'm going to be doing 35% over the front. On my car, it was checked 4 times. The last time they said remove the tint or it would be impounded. It was 35%. MN state patrol runs our of real crimes often...
