10 or 12mm, just lift the odd tile to check for good coverage on the back of the tile.

ok, how about length of trowel? do you need one that matches the size of tile?? i have a 280mm trowel at present, do i need a longer one?

Nah that'll be fine, you usually spread out enough glue for 2 or 3 tiles anyway.
