I cut the center lugs back and leave a 1/2 inch gap threw the center.

so i probaly could cut them to the center line in the middle or a 1/2 in. to the outside

Yes.That frees up the center of the tire and lets each lug bite better.

I cut the tips of the lugs off so you end up with what looks like a line around the middle of the tire. This makes them flex.

I traced what needs to be cut off your tires with red, but you can hardly tell in this picture.
