Just get medium but remember older Buffet's were designed for leather pads. Only RC's would need anything thicker but if you order pads by the hundred then you get a big enough variety anyway.

If you do order leather pads I'd recommend B32 pads from Ferree's Tools, you can buy them as single-clarinet set (and hope they're the right diameters), or measure the pads you've got and order a dozen of each size --- you'll probably need 9.5 mm, 11mm, 14mm, and 17mm or thereabouts. Or order a mixed bag of one hundred as Mark suggested.
