Yah obviously go in at a angle, but if you are really worried about it, take your car parallel to the curve, turn your wheel right so the front tire is against the curve, not rubbing though. Give a little gas, one tire up pull up the back tire on same side, and than pull car in. You shouldnt have any scraping problems that way. Going in at a reg angle, you might bash your oil pan.

My driveway is the shittiest piece of steep ass shit (with the same 'half moon' gutters).

Just come in crooked and you'll be fine.

That's definitely easy to get in and out of. Just drive up to it parallel to the curb and once you get one wheel up you're fine. My driveway is like that now and my s2000 is low and I can still get in and out using that method without scraping anything.

Awesome...thanks for all the advice guys. Cars definitely aren't slammed...but the WRX is about 1.5" lower than stock and the BMW is on coils and a few inches lower than stock.

I don't think you'd have any problems getting in the driveway. Just take it easy.

And watch out for the HOA or whatever neighborhood group they got. They don't play.

My last HOA was a condo though, so most of my issues had to deal with places to walk/run our dog and others getting pissy (not even about cleanup). This house will have a full backyard (fenced) so that shouldn't be a worry.
