One thing you gotta consider with 20s is that you're going to lose your ride without some serious modification to your suspension. I wouldn't go more than plus 2 maybe plus 3 on my ride.
As far as tints go if you get 35% there pretty light overall(almost see through). It really depends, if you want that dark look then your going to have get daker than 35%.

I wouldn't recommend it. If you live in Jersey , you then know the roads always get tore up with traffic and snowstorms, it ends up being not worth it too try to maintain those wheels. On the other hand if it's just a weekend car, then it would be more manageable. 20s really look better on bigger cars like S class or 745s

The 1996 really has a awkward looking rear wheel arch with 20s so you would need to go with a REALLY small tire so you could lower it properly. The new 30series narrow 20's are not cheap at all, and you would need some strong wheels, so the price would be seriously up there.
I think the 1997+ design is better suited to 20". The 1996's look perfect with 19s IMO.
