If you are talking about the neogens, they stretch amazing. I also have 215/35/19's on an 8.5. I was able to lower more after switching to these.
Pros: stretch amazing, lower more

My experience is that they balance just fine but yes, they do have a thin (2 ply nylon?) sidewall, which is why I inflate them to 51 PSI as per manufacturer's spec and they do great! This is a diesel Jetta so the fastest I've driven them at a constant speed was about 80mph from central Connecticut to midcoast Maine. I also drove the Jetta from Maine to Seattle 2 summers ago with over a thousand pounds of "stuff" in and on the car. They behaved just fine and did excellent in the horrible rainstorms I encountered in Illinois.
Pros: balance just fine, good in rain
Cons: thin sidewall
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
The tires are 235/40/17 Advan Neova AD07 tires with about 8/32 or 80% tread depth left. By far my favorite tires I've ever owned suuuuper sticky, unfortunately I didn't have them long enough to get a track day in on them.
Pros: suuuuper sticky
Vehicle:
Audi S4
We have a set of Kuhmo XS's and Koni Yellows on the way - Santa was good to us!
Had them on the Jetta for 2 years now. Great summer tire for general use. Don't expect it to handle sporty or go anywhere in the snow. But they do have a very low rolling resistance and will reward you with better mileage.
Pros: low rolling resistance, better mileage
Cons: not for sporty use, not for snow
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Ditto on the Nokians from me as well. On my 2nd set after 50K miles and find my speed control chimes going off regularly now (set at 96 MPH) because the ride is just so smooth.
Pros: ride is so smooth
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Touareg
Mileage: 50000 km
Ditto on the Nokians. On three Touaregs, I've had Dunlops, Pirellis, Falkens, Hankooks and am on my second set of Nokians. It's night and day.
Pros: night and day
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Touareg
my 205/45/17 on a 9 in front. Don't run a 40 series, the a 205/45 Falken 512 is just as small as a 205/40 of any other brand. the tire is just that small. Trust me.
Pros: small tire
Cons: run a 40 series
I run 235/35/19 on a 19x8.5 up front. Koni coils, occasionally rubs on hard cornering or uneven pavement, but I'm pretty low so... Falken 452's
Cons: rubs on hard cornering
I switched from the 3D to the Revo1 last year and I regret the purchase... The Revo1 is a better tire from a snow perspective but in all other aspects it's terrible! On dry roads the Revo1s wander and track all over the place, are extremely loud, are very slow on initial turn-in, and wear very quickly! In rainy and slushy conditions they are downright scary!!!
Pros: better in snow
Cons: terrible in other aspects
