I can't really comment on it though because when I swapped it with the OE Goodyears to try and find the source of the shimmy the car didn't like it at all. Probably because of the sheer difference in grip and probably diameter as well due to it being new. I did price them but they are 200 each here and no 3 for 4 deal at the moment.
I'm looking forward to having 4 identical brand new tyres.

Four tyres the same is always a Good Thing.
The OE Primacy is not the same tyre as the Primacy 3 ST. The OE tyre is the Primacy HP and has been replaced in Europe by the Primacy 3. Michelin then modified the tyre for Asian conditions (crap roads, heavy rain, better wear), renamed it the Primacy ST and make it in Thailand.
I don't know what you're paying for the Yokos, but I would highly recommend the Michelins. Only downside is they're not sports tyres, but then the Mondeo isn't exactly a sports car.
