MK isn't a model, it's the generation. That's what I was told at one time or another so, that's what I know, maybe someone else can elaborate more on the subject.

It all depends on which model your car is. They have different bolt patterns and spacing on different models.
look around on the net a nd you can find sites that will give you a maximum size for any car,
i think bigwheels.com still does it, just do some research and youll find places.
as far as the MK's its just a name for the different models. kind of like when you hear people talking about the generations of a car.
gen 1, gen 2, gen 3 , sure thats about as clear as mud

the mk1 is the first body style of golf,
the mk2 is the second body style,
the mk3 is the third body style, not sure on years for these
the mk4 is the body style from 99-05, the one right before the newest came out in 06 which is (drum roll please) the Mk5... make sense?
