ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a weather strip attached to a flange (2) of a door opening part (1) of a vehicle body and that has a mounting base part (51) and a hollow seal part (52) in which tip ends of side-face projections (521,522) protruding from one side face of the mounting base part (51) so as to increase the width of the hollow seal part (52) toward the tip ends thereof are connected to each other by a seal wall (523). The projecting widths of the side-face projections (521,522) are changed in each of a first part (5A), a second part (5B), and a third part (5C), each of which is provided along a corresponding one of a roofside portion (1A), a front vertical portion (1B), and a rear vertical portion (1C) of the door opening (1). This changes the tilt angle of the seal wall523with respect to the flange (2).
