Best weatherstripping?

What do you guys like? From what I’ve seen Metro is pretty popular. Many, many moons ago I used soft seal on the 67 and it worked well. Not too stiff like people complain about now.
I think I used soft seal on the Grand National and it was garbage. Super stiff and the pins on the door seals didn’t line up well at the ends.

Based on what I’ve seen recently I’m likely to go with metro from rock auto.
Nashvilles probably the only one with a 66-67 who bought weatherstripping recently.
 
I’ve used both brands on my 68 and so far no complaints, don’t remember which brand went where though
 
I've used metro all around but sofseal is just fine. I've heard the issues on sofseal trunk ws, so haven't used it. Your door seals will always give a firm push until they sit compressed for a few months. This always creates discussions on OTC.....no matter the manufacturer.
 
My doors closed great WO WS and the pass side has WS and sticks out a little at the bottom, haven’t put it on Drv side yet but will prob be the same
 
I’ll get metro for everything else but I bought OPGI for the trunk seal which I think is their house brand. Hope it works out ok. Thanks for the input.
