I have 35% tint all around and I think it is just perfect. The brand they used is called Llumar titanium tint. The other common brand for a quality installation is 3M tint. 20% in my opinion is too dark. See the picture below. I paid $200 for that installation in Chicago, Illinois.
The best thing for you to do is go to a quality installer who can show you the various tint swatches.
Make sure the installer you choose can do your rear window with a single sheet of film. Sometimes the sheets of tint are not big enough to cover the entire window and tinting shops will cut corners by piecing together a couple of sheets in the rear window. It ends up looking crappy and increases your chances of it peeling in the future.
(See http://images.antre.net/saab/9-5_03.jpg if you'd like to see what mine looked like before the tint)
