They look like they're on the right way around at least. It's normal for the rubber to fold to a different position at the hinge end of the door - looks like you're's aren't doing that and so that might be why the doors not closing properly.

New rubbers means you'll likely be slamming the doors for a while till they loosten up a bit. I have the same prob on my 1200 boot which (with several coats of paint on both boot and body now) has added about a mm to the rubber space.

Stick the rubbers with contact adhesive. Make sure you apply the adhesive to both rubber and door and let it get tacky quite a bit before pushing the rubber on. Once done - close the door and let the rubber settle. The rubber will then stick in it's natural position on the car, rather than using tape to hold it there.
