For a tire to enter the North American market, it has to have the DOT certification built in to the sidewall. Or it can be an implement tire and marked as such, but then a guy could have trouble getting the vehicle safetied.
Customs is well aware of this and prvent tires that are not so marked from entering. A well known Canadian dealer found this out years ago when he salvaged a lot of M151 tires from the US only to find they could not be brought in to Canada. I had it hit home recently when a local garage wanted me to replace all the tires on my M38A1Cdn3 because they didn't show the required marking.
