Buy your dark or mirrors lens but be sure to buy a set of comfortable clear lens glasses to go with it. I bought a set of Wiley X Saber glasses with clear lenses to wear under my Shoei RF-1000 with dark smoked lens so when it gets dark out all I do is flip up the lens then I still have eye protection. If I know i am going to be out primarily at night then I flip flop and put my clear lens on my Shoei and wear dark lens Oakley half wires under my helmet. The half wires are very comfortable by the way. Lastly vision by far the most used sense we use when we ride so don't impair it by trying to look good unless you back it up looking good with practicality.

RE: tinted helmet shield
i switch back and forth between two helmets. one has a mirror shield and the other has a clear shield. i also do the sunglasses under clear shield thing when i ride in changing light conditions.
