I have heard many differing opinions with regard to this. Some walk a tight line towards Islam and some walk the line closest to the culture they grew up with. I've read that Islam is a living religion and that it is tolerant to the customs of the country you live. Do you believe this to be true?

If the gap is too wide, keeping your believes in your heart and avoiding deeds that are forbidden by Islam as practically as you can, that would be one way to compromise.
Remember always that God know what we have in our hearts and what are our intentions, God is mercifully, he will not punish you for something you cannot do it and he know that your intention is to follow the instructions of Islam within your capabilities, but if the counter current is stronger than you, your heart will be the safest place for your believes, God know about it and that is what you will be judged for.

From the way it seems to work, the last thing I would characterize Islam as is a "living religion" or "tolerant". This is based on it's stance on human rights, equality and tendency to form violent splinter groups.

Your culture is your hertage and therefore should not come in the way of religion as Islam is the way you honor God and not society.

That's easy: Islam can stay out of my culture's way and not demand that government funds be used to install "foot baths", not demand that government funds be used to pay for religious instruction, and entirely forget about having a separate set of "courts" from the civil courts.

It takes two to resolve some problem between them. I wish I could solve it alone.

Frankly, no
It is clear to see for anyone who takes the time to read the Qu'ran, that it has very little to none tolerance to other "ways of life" than the commands of it's own.
