Looking at Tire Rack's site, it looks like an offset from 38mm to 42mm will work and backspacing from 5.18" to 6.22". Don't know what the specs are for the Lucerne wheels, though. You can see various wheels on the car using Tire Rack's site.

Something like this (if the link works):

If you have a Discount Tire near your location, they are very helpful, too, with selecting the right package for your car. Now you have me thinking I need new rims for my 02 Limited.

They will fit..there is a member here with them on a 98..these car's are all pretty close in that department..

You just gotta make sure that whichever tire/wheel combination you go with, it matches the stock outside diameter. If you go larger in rim diameter, you're gonna have to get a thinner tire. With an 18" rim, you're probably lookin' at 50 series tires or maybe even thinner.
