20mm to bring it down to et 15 or 15mm to bring it too et 20. I'd personally go for 15mm and some rolled archs depending on the width

6j is the same as clones iirc.
15mm spacers would bring you to et20 so very similar to how clones sit at et19 but personally id go for 20mm to bring them out of the arches a bit.

Dont listen any of that duff advice above that matt has given.
Id put a 20mm spacer on giving an et15. This will need no arch work what so ever
I put 15mm spacers on the 6j clones making them et3 with no issues
Wait. ET +35
OR ET -35 ??

^^as above, cyclones tuck far too much as standard. I'd go for ET15, maybe even 10 with the arch lips bashed flush.
