What brand are you buying? You should definitely stick with the OEM seals, I've heard nothing but bad things about the aftermarket ones. Also I'd consult the service manual, make sure you're installing them correctly and that they are completely seated.

Make sure that there are no nicks or dings on the stanchions from rock impacts. Nicks, dings and dried bugs on the tubes where the seals ride will tear up the seals in short order. The seals should last for tens of thousands of miles. Fork protectors work well at protecting fork seals.
