Curbanoia

I've always been paranoid about curbs and have never rashed a rim.

My personal rides have ranged in size from an '85 CRX, to an '05 Ram, and my work vehicles have typically included full size vans and large straight trucks.

Here's my problem, and I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this:

I cannot get close to a curb with my 86.

It goes beyond the paranoia of damaging a rim - I've always had nice wheels and could judge the whereabouts of the curb to my satisfaction, but in the 86, one of the smallest vehicles I've owned, I constantly find that I've parked at least a foot away from any curb I pull up to.

Your counsel is appreciated, and I confess in advance that I did not search this subject.
