I got new tints about 7 weeks ago for my E53. I believe the NJ laws are the same as NY, in other words NO tint allowed on the fronts. Nevertheless, I wound up getting 20% for the rears and 35% for the fronts. I love how it looks. It's a very gentle "blending" transition when you look at the front and then the rears. Not the painful-looking contrast of no tint on the front and the dark 20% on the rears. I have not gotten stopped yet, even though I'm driving 80+ miles each day. The only thing that would have looked even better is 20% tints all-around, but then I would just be begging to get stopped. This was a more conservative option. It still looks pretty dark on the fronts, but not so dark that I would get pulled over. I can post some pics later. If you don't mind crossing over to NJ, I can tell you where I had mine done. The guy used 3M tint with a life-time warranty. Top-notch job.
