Default Cut BFT patterns wanted

got a set of BFT and ace adapters coming. I've seen several cut BFT patterns but I can't seem to find any post talking / showing how people like to cut the BFT's...can you guy spost up some pictures? Please.

I'm thinking of removing half of every other lug or maybe grooving down the lug to make it like a gaint tracs...

Or you can modify this one.

Here's how I cut mine. They perform awesome. I wouldn't cut out too much I noticed that anymore that would make the tire carcass too flexable and wouldn't hold the truck up.

4RnrRick since that's my pic you used, let me show you how I cut that and the other tires ;) They're very similar to RckJeep's; I modeled them after the ones pictured in Dirk's 'Top Ten' article:
