^, I suppose the 522's come in 35 offsets all around? If so you could probably get away with 8mm spacers in the front and 5mm in the rear on a stock bodied car.
Tires, you can run 235 or 245/40/18's in the front and 265 or 275/35/18's for the rear.

99' SC400 *Help Please* Does anyone know of 5x114.3 to 5x120 15mm spacer/conversion adapters and what companies make them? And also how will fitment be with a 19x10 +5 offset for the rear? Will I need to pull my rear fenders or can I get away with just rolling my rear fenders and a little tire stretch?

^, what he said. Expect to add anywhere from 15 - 20mm more with the conversion spacers dropping the offset into the negatives. Even the +5 is too much for my tastes, I like to run a decent amount of tire, you'll have to stretch.
The ones listed by laurante are 1.25" thick, making it roughly 32mm thick, making your effective offset -27.

Im looking at 18x8 fronts and 18x10 rears... +35 offset on both going on my 1995 Sc300 on stock suspension for now as winter is coming... What would be a good size tire were I too decide to lower? I like a little stretched look but dont wanna have crazy expensive tires either.

^, 235/40/18 for the fronts, 275/35/18 for the rears. I'm not into stretching tires. Those offsets are not really aggressive so you should not have to stretch the tires.
The fronts will be quite sunken though, you could use 10 - 15mm spacers for the fronts.
