Thinner door gaskets ?

Who has the thinnest door gaskets ? Most are much thicker rubber than the GM ones , which is causing problems for me . Having to slam the doors to get them to close properly . I'm thinking about trying Soft Seal. Any advise ?

I've used the soft seal rubbers an still had to slam the doors even after a year after the instalation. and I'm pretty damn sure the doors were adjusted properly.they just seem too thick in the front of the jam
