New Door Pin Hinge Clearance?

Bought a one door pin & bushings kit from Rock Auto, found out it was a Dorman product so I bought the other hinge/bushings kit from Autozone. Turns out both pin bushings kits have a bit more slop then what i'm comfortable with. The bushings have .005 to .006 thousands slop on the 11/32" pin. I'm thinking with the lenght of the door, the hinges would still feel very loose . Of course the Dorman hinge kits are Chinese made. Am I being to pickey or should I look for a better quality kit. If so who sells a good kit with tighter clearances?
Don't want to have to remove the door more then once.

The Inline Tube kit has the best pins and rollers.

I just did a set of hinges.
