Default scraping-> possible rust issues

I just moved and I now scrape every other time into my driveway(I can't go at an angle it is between houses with ~3 inches each side clearance) It sounds pretty solid when I scrape I have yet to get my car up in the air I think the scraping is coming from the frame behind the front wheels(the driveway has a very severe angle) Has anyone in the midwest experienced rust problems because the rust proofing was scraped off their teg. Anys suggestions on how to protect my car.

my car is at stock height

Thanks

can't u park outside? or is it a bad area? scraping everyday going in and out of your driveway doesn't sound good to me.. can you put wood blocks where at angles up so that your tires roll up on it and give you more clearance or something?

the rise is about a 60 degree angle an is only 4-5 ft long, putting wooden blocks would not help. The area is not the greatest Had my previos car broken into and hit multiple times on the street. My Friends and I have had no problems when our cars are parked on the steet. The only reason that I do not scrape every time is that I am learning the exact timing I need (slight shock rebound) to not scrape at the bottom or the apex of the hill.
