any tints on ur tails are illegal, but my buddy has never ever been pulled over in his charger for his tinted tails, and they have definatly seen them. i thing is though tints on ur tais gives cops a reason to pull you over, most of the ime they will pull you over to see whats going on in your car, make sure theres nothing going on that shouldnt be, and if ur respectful and not a dick they'll let you go.

so i your running drugs or carrying dead bodies around in your car i wouldnt recommend tinting the tails because then cops can pull you over for that then nail you for being a muderer or what not.
