Planning to get the windows tinted on my Taycan 4S when it arrives and I'm curious what tint level people recommend on the front and sides. I understand the state limit on the front is 70% which is crazy high to me, coming from states that were 35% or less and far less sunny. Also I think it would look weird to go with 70% up front but 35% or lower in the rear and sides.

Anyone have any suggestions?

There is the legal amount and what you can get away with. Most reputable window tinters with lots of high yelp reviews will give you good advice on this. I think I got 35% on the front 50% on sides and rear and 70% on the panoramic roof. This was a Tesla and I don't believe you need the tint on the Taycan roof.

I go 20% front and rear windows/windshield and 70% tint on windshield.

No, it's technically NOT legal in the state of CA.
