maybe you also never gave your parents a reason for them to fully respect and trust you.
maybe your choice of friends also caused your parents to be overprotective because they hear other parents telling them what rebels they have for kids.

sure you pay for YOUR gas and insurance etc, but these are also for your own consumption. imagine if you were the dad, toiling away long hours on his job, only to come home to a house where his kids just keep whining about not being able to "socialize and make friends", and stay out late past 12mn. you don't see your dad complaining he cant go out and just chill with his dudes, right?

first step on the road to compromise? if they don't give in, swallow your pride and show them you are capable of being trustworthy and respected.
