I personally hate them.

Yeah I don't get the whole "so people can't see you" thing. I can understand about your home, but your CAR? What are you doing in your car besides driving if you need tinted windows?

many reasons. mainly privacy, but with people with leather seats, the sun destroys the seats and tinted windows help.

I live in Texas, it REALLY REALLY helps keep the inside cooler. And helps block some of the sunlight which is great for those with light sensitive eyes.
It also means people can not see what is in my car, when my car is parked at a shopping center. Many people like the way a car looks with tinted windows.

Most people can not tell the difference between normal tinted and not tinted windows (very slight) If they are dark tint they are made so others can not see in and keeps more sun rays out or just for looks (preference) Tints were made to keep out some of the suns rays, different tints keep out different amounts .

In a home its to keep the sun light to a minimum. In a car its not only b/c of the sun but also b/c of privacy. For example: if you have a brand new TV in your car and you have to go in to the store for something, do you really want the risk of getting your TV robbed. Or if you are alone in your car with your 9 month old baby and you get lost and are in a bad area, do you really want everyone to know your alone with your kid??

Keep sunlight out so that the car or home is cooler. And some tints keep out harmful UV rays.

I dislike them, as well. They seem to indicate a distrust of others (wanting to keep their gaze out of the car) and I tend to associate them with criminal activity...though perhaps some people install them because they feel they are being unjustly profiled based on physical appearance, and they want to blind law enforcement to their hair, skin color, style of dress, etc. which is a pretty good idea, so I guess I need to stay open minded.

Reflects the sun so your car doesn't get as hot and allows for privacy if you don't have a garage to park in and you don't want people to easily see inside your car. I also think it makes my car look better.

it relies upon on what sort of assure or guarantee the those that did the tint gave you... after 3 years, i might think of you wont get something from them inspite of the dimensions of the bubbles... you're able to call them and locate out earlier you attempt to make it look worse...

Privacy and keeping the sun out of your eyes. Think about it, if you were in the car with your boyfriend you wouldn't want everyone to be able to see you guys making out!

to reduce the amount of sunlight thus reducing heat and ultravoillet damage to the intierior of the car.
OH, and to hide your identity when you decide to stick the middle finger up at your non driving boss.
