Obviously, you either need a smaller diameter washer or a larger diameter

Everything's 1-1/2". That's why its driving me nuts.

Is anything binding, not fitting together easily before tightening the
nut? There is not much fight if things fit.

Pictures?

I'm hearing some faint bells go off here. I had a similar leak until I
(a) pointed the damn washer in the other direction and (b) went out and
bought a metal nut, rather than the plastic one that came with the trap,
to hold the tailpiece into the metal pipe coming out of the wall. Not
sure if that applies to OP's situation, but unless he already threw out
the old parts, it doesn't cost anything to try.
