i agree with orrieg, fit the doors as best as you can and go with it.
my doors fit like factory set them up, like crap.
if you don't have at least 3/16 all around the movement of the door while driving will chip the paint.
mine vary from 1/8 to 1/4, no one has ever mention my door gaps
the bottom of the drivers door sticks out 1/4 inch from the jamb
