Existing bolts will fit. You might get some scrubbing depending on the tyre with and ride height.

You'll probably need 215 tyres and front arch work, depending on ride height.

Existing bolts will be fine
What dan said about tyres and front arch rolling

I hope you are lowering it otherwise it'll look like a monster truck on 19's

8.5j et35 will fill the arches / poke out a little at the front unless you run lots of camber.

best fit for the mk5 is 8j et50
