Which hinges - 2 x 4" or 3 x 3"

The other half has chosen 2 internal oak doors which weigh more than the average internal door - do I hang them with 2 x 4inch hinges or 3 x 3" hinges ?

3 inch will be fine if they are 35 milometers thick doors which is standard internal size. hinges 6 innch down from top nine inches up from bottom and middle one in the center of the other two hinges not of door
