Planning to upgrade the rear to Continental Extreme 285/35 19's and keep the OEM bridgestone front tires. Would I encounter the same problem of car being unbalanced?

Yes.

Can proper alignment and balancing of the tire would correct it? When do you actually experience the unsteadiness during hard cornering or at certain straight line speed?

As plumber mentioned- you experience it at all times. IMO, the faster you are going the more noticable it is.

An alignment helps steady the car but it doesn't counteract anything caused by this tire imbalance.
