The sound you are hearing could be coming from a starved or defective Power Steering pump. On front wheel drive cars worn cv joints can make a fuss. For safety sake I would get this looked at asap.
sure! i have 19" alloy wheels on my 2000 cougar
Unfortunately the lug pattern is different, the wheels will not interchange. You can use Thunderbird or Cougar wheels.
about 300 at the block about 220 at the wheels
rear of car/makes the back wheels spin/one on right and one on left
I believe that the 35th's came with 17 in wheels, which used a 215/50 tire.
2 front wheels 4 front wheel bearings 2 inner and 2 outer
It depends on what wheels your cougar came with. If you have the 15 inch, six spoke fan blade wheels, you need 205/60 tires, if you have the 16 inch, sport package wheels, you need the harder to find, 215/50 tires. 17 inch wheels were not available in '99 to the best of my knowledge. If you have trouble finding the 215/50/16 tires, both the more common 225/50 tires, and the 215/55 tires can be used without much problem.
The best way is to go to a junk yard and pull the disk brake assembly off of a Cougar, or a Contour/Mystique, the latter two will require you still purchase a Cougar specific E-Brake cable though. There's plenty of info on this conversion in the wheels, tires, and brakes section at the newcougar.org forums.
Your front wheels should be turned so that, if your car were to roll it would turn into the curb. If your car is facing downhill, the front wheels should be turned into the curb. If your car is facing uphill, your front wheels should be turned away from the curb.

Could be a broken ABS sensor ring at one of the wheels
