Offset your arc inward by .15625 (1/2 your tool dia.) and change the "tip comp" from "tip" to "center" (under compensation type & compensation direction)

[RaiderX]

If I understand correctly think you want to change from tip comp to center under cut parameters.

Be very carefull this is a rare exception that this condition is wanted, been bit by this
