Default Quarter Panel Tint?

Hiya! I'm just wondering if we are allowed to tint our rear quarter panels any tint percentage allowed or do we have to stay within the state's limit? I can't seem to find any information about this. I'm planning to tint 35% (Oregon's law) on the front side windows/rear hatch and go 5% on the rear quarter panels. Will that look good or should I just stick with 35% all round?

Oregon tint law looks like 35% driver/passenger, 35% rear windows, and 35% for the actual rear window (hatch), as well as a 6" strip on the windshield.

Yea, but would you really consider our rear quarter panels to be an actual rear window? we only have 2 doors so mainly, the 2 doors need to be within limit. The little quarter windows (to me) are not considered "rear windows." It's not a 4 door sedan where it needs to be within limit. These are just little tiny windows so you can out of it. It doesn't open or close. Any clarification?

i have 20% quarters/rear and 25% front.

I would agree with Shoe..Try to stick with one %, but if you really want different %s i wouldnt go more than a shade lighter/darker. I wouldve got both 20% but that's too dark for me in the fronts in CA...
