How to center action menu on toolbar

Question

I have an application with a split action bar loading an action menu.

I changed the actionbar for the new toolbar and replaced the split actionbar by an other toolba

I've also been trying to find an answer to this question the past couple weeks. And the closest thing I have found takes advantage of the fact that the Toolbar is just a ViewGroup. All you need to do is create a menu_items layout that is just a LinearLayout with equally weighted menu items added. I know this isn't an ideal solution but I haven't found anyway to spread out the items while using the default menu.
