6mm or 8mm tiles

hi
I am about to start a project to re-tile a bathroom which is a shower area and a splash back, including going round a window. This is my first large tiling project and I intend to use a manual tile cutter and tile saw. I have plenty of time and even more patience.
Is it best to choose a thin tile, say 6mm, or a slightly thicker tile at 8mm?
The better quality tiles, and therefore the better looking ones, seem to be 8mm.
