You have to decide which vane you intend to use , then you can go to their website and see how much each of their vanes weigh. The weight will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer.

I'd go with 4" vanes. 5" is going to be pretty heavy and most likely screw up the FOC of the arrow, which means there won't be enough weight up front to pull the arrow along so they'll tend to drift at longer ranges.
