Winter set up

Put on my winter wheel set up (OEM 19inch style 786M). Gives this car a totally different attitude with the black wheels.

I really like that, looks great. I might have to think about some black wheels as well, maybe do something similar with snow tires for next year.

Not at this point. Kids are fine with the rear sunshades.

IMO, the main purpose of tint isn't to block out the sun (even though it's a nice benefit) but instead it's to enhance the physical appearance of the car while offering some privacy.

That car would look amazing with 25% tint. Just make certain to check your state's tint laws before you tint.

The shades do help block bright light but ceramic tint blocks heat too.
