This is really a question for the carpentry section not roofers we only deal with the actual root covering that stop the elements getting in not the structure of the roof.
However with that said if it pitched 150 x 50 would be fine or 200 x 50 would be more then adequate
Flat roof you want 200 x 50 but just to be safe I’d repost in carpentry section to get true professional opinion who does this job day in day out.

Rafters for a pitched roof or do you mean floor joists or do you mean it’s a flat roof ?
