I am 18 years old, 6 ft tall and 12% bf at 195 lbs. I want to get leaner and look very dry, so I am currently cutting. How many carbs should I get per day?

What's your TDEE and other macros look like? Carbs aren't the only concern when it comes to cutting I hope you realize. Another option is to try keto and < 50g/day of carbs.

Like doc said, carbs aren't the only concern. As long as you're in a calorie defecit then you'll lose weight. Lowering carbs will make you lose water weight, but this is temporary and you'll gain back the water once you start eating carbs again.

I am currently getting around 290g of protein. TDEE is about 3000 calories.
