Hi Mohsen,

The thicker the rubber the more spin ad speed it will have and the less control.

I woud recommend a 1.5 to 2mm rubber at the most for you.  That will give you plenty of spin and enough control to push the ball.  Make sure you select a rubber with good control and not too fast.  We would recommend the Mark V or perhaps Yasaka Pryde.
