first off, our car sux cause we have the weirdest bolt pattern on earth, which exclude us from getting some cool rims... but there are still a bunch of rims out there that will fit our car and the list is growing... 4x100 bolt pattern will not fit, so forget about that. one option you have is to have it custom drilled, but of course that will add cost. some rims have 2 4 bolt patterns on their rims... for example, 4x100 and 4x108 on the same rims, thus 8 holes. pretty common practice.... and forget about 5 lugs.
As far as tire goes, just remember one thing... overall tire diameter must stay the same when replacing OEM tires... if you go bigger, there is a good chance that your tires will rub the wheel well and also throw your speedo off... same thing happens if you go smaller. when you order your tires, just tell the person taking your order the size of your oem wheels and they can hook you up with the right size tire for your new rims.
Edit:
Also when looking for rims keep in mind that the Contour and Focus share our bolt pattern (4X108), because some websites don't have the Cougar as an option.
