when would be a good time to call you

Hello,
Do the following sentences sound fine:
- When would it be convenient for me to call you?
- When would be convenient for me to call you?
- When would be convenient to call you?
- When is a good time to call you?
- When's a convenient time for me to call you?

Can we leave "for me" and "it" out?

Since I use the expression often in my hobby business, I use both with and without ‘it’. When verbally asking for a suitable time, I omit ‘it’ and ‘for me’. In email or formal writing, I include ‘it’ and ‘for me’.
