Looks like your o2's are on their way out. Both my fronts went out on me too, at the same time. I just swapped the back one's to the front and put the fronts in the back with o2 sims. Saved me some money.

Try clearing the codes a few times, and check your connections. Maybe they were put on wrong.

There is a thread in the PCM forum on the Bosch 13111's: https://ls1tech.com/forums/pcm-diagnostics-tuning/583508-i-called-bosch-tech-re-slow-oxygen-sensors.html. You'll find your issue discussed extensively there.
