    It because the seal is new and obviously at this point in its life harder to compress. You can move your B pillar catch slightly to take this into consideration. As the seal compresses with age you can then reposition the latch

    I just slammed mine shut (but mine weren't overly tight)

    Might be worth checking you have it pushed on correctly all the way round. I tried the door seal on my resto project and the door wouldn't shut. Turned out it wasn't fitted correctly at the front end of the door. It still needs a good slam but i'm sure it's just due to new rubbers that need settling in
