I believed they are both Made in Germany. A small portion of Dunlop tires are Made in Japan.

This may be totally of the wall since i don't know. But couldn't you drive through one border crossing with your car and old wheels, no spare in the trunk, and drive through another, different border crossing with one of your original wheels as a spare and the new ones mounted. Repeat 3 more times and avoid the the tax.
