I am getting ready to trench in some solid 4" tile for gutter drains, How
deep should I go with this tile? Central Ohio.

Below frost line and above footing.
Local building department or construction related folk should know
local frost level.

Normally I would say, where the lawn mower won't hit it.

I ran 4" PVC underground away from my house in Virginia. It averages about
6" below surface. Frost heaving is not a worry because the pipe has enough
flexibility. If it were installed any deeper I would not have been able to
have the water exit. It worked well with the 12" of rain we had a few
weekends ago.
