The SAE recommends a 16-degree approach clearance with 300 lbs of ballast on board.Curbs,gutters,and driveway ramps are supposed to be constructed such that automobiles will always 'clear' if built to the SAE minimum.
Supercars can cheat,as they have active suspension,lowering the car only when it's out of harm's way.
