Hell now I think about you don't even need soap, that's just for applying tint. Just heat up the tint and pick up a corner of it with a blade. Start to peel it with your hands while still using heat. The more heat the less glue that stays on afterwards. Then scrape the little bit of glue off with razors.

Depends on the age of the film, I've had some that was like tissue paper and came off in little pieces and some that come off in a big sheet, old film stinks bad and most likely you will need to use razor blades on the entire window to get the glue off, use dawn and water in a squirt bottle the chemicals for glue will make a mess and it will get everywhere

Googone works great but its oily dawn will take care of that

Lol. I run 35's and stock u joints. I broke 5 last year. Two at the same time at one point.

The roommate (Brandon77) runs stock spicer joints on 33's and hasn't busted one yet.

You'll be fine with 32's.
