Door weatherstripping
I put new weatherstripping from lmc on my truck. It went on good, looks good. But the doors don’t close easily. Is there any modifications I can make so the doors close better? I was thinking of cutting a 1/8 of an inch out of the the center from the bottom.

I would imagine the rubber will start to compress some with use. I don't thin I would start cutting anything yet.
