Which would help my score the most:
Have about 5 CC's that I DO NOT use anymore. The lowest utilization rate is probably 40%. Highest is probably 85%
Personal opinion. Pay off the smaller ones. You don't have to worry about them anymore. Now take what you were paying on those monthly and roll into your next lowest one. Snowball effect. You see results and gives you motivation.
Additionally one of the FICO scoring criteria is "Number of accounts with balances". It seems as if FICO likes to see less than 1/2 of accounts to carry a balance. As a for instance, if you have 5 accounts FICO wants to see a balance on 2 or less. And this applies to all accounts total including installment. Since my installment accounts reported have quite a while before payoff it means I have to be very careful with my revolving accounts for this scoring factor.
It may only be a small portion of the total FICO scoring algorithm but I brought up this point since your concern was on your score and not necessarily best debt management. Many here advocate for paying down highest interest obligations first regardless of balances in order to save money.
