I have a lot of sidewall ... therefore even when I scrape the curb, it just leaves a nasty look on the sidewall.

This is one case where small rims > big rims.

Some upper end tires have little lips on them that will protect your rims from damage.

Sounds familiar...I always take good care of my baby's wheels....however, the first week I had my 745, i scratched the hell out of the front right....cost $350 to fix. Haven't done it since though...
