A front door weatherstrip for motor vehicles has a wind-noise suppressing rib formed in a groove portion defined between a hollow sealing lip and a tongue-like sealing lip of the door weatherstrip to serve as a dam against a flow in a longitudinal direction of the groove portion. When these lips are elastically deformed by closing the front door, the wind-noise suppressing rib penetrates into a recess portion of the hollow sealing lip to overlap with the recess portion and to make the flow continuous by a bypass flow through the recess portion. Therefore, the front door weatherstrip is improved in at least drainage property without affecting sealing property and door closure property.
