When traveling during the summer, the cab can get hot, so I'm considering tinting the cab side windows.
Concern of course is the legality of it in certain states.
Have any of you guys tinted your windows, and have you encountered any issues?
Thank you

We have not tinted our side windows, but have thought about it. We live in a state where it is legal to tint front windows. In NJ it has always been viewed as illegal (lived there for 30 years), but within the last few years, there was someone that got a ticket for tinted front windows. He fought it in court and won.
Since we did not tint the windows, we decided to purchase 2 thermal curtains and hang them to isolate the cab. It really makes a big difference having that current. It helps in cold weather and hot weather. We used some paracord and heavy duty picture frame hangers to hang the curtains. That way they sit flush with the cab over bunk and don't allow hot air to escape the cab into the living space.
When it is hot when traveling, we close the curtains. It helps to keep the dash A/C in the cab air. The roof top air doesn't really enter the cab area, but the dash A/C escapes it pretty well.
