What does 15% tint look like?
How it looks
Dark, but not blacked out. In daylight you can make out shapes inside if you look for them. From across a parking lot the glass still reads black.
Who picks it
A common all-around choice when 5% feels like too much. It gives real privacy and is easier to see out of at night than limo tint.
Is it legal in Arizona?
In Arizona this shade is legal on the back side windows and the rear glass, where you can go as dark as you want. Front side windows have to let more than 33% of light through, so it is too dark for the front doors of a street vehicle. Read the full guide.

These are jobs from Jonny's portfolio where his notes say 15% went on. The line under each photo is which glass got it. Daylight, paint color, and the camera all change how dark film looks, so use these as a guide.
