Japaneese Bearings on a SEL?

I just pulled my rotors et al from the front of my 560SEL and while de-greasing the bearings before repacking them I noticed that they're made in Japan. Is it just me or is there something fundamentally wrong with the picture?

I'm about half-tempted to order a bearing kit just for peace of mine. I know the Japaneese bearings are probably okay, but I'd have a warm fuzzy knowing my German car had German parts in that role.

Am I overreacting?


Thanks in advance!


Scott
