8-Lug Escalade?

I need to convert a 2010 Escalade to 8-lug without using adapters.  Its 2wd and the new HD trucks use different hubs (they have 4 bolts bolting them to the hub and the escalade has 3).  The suspension is identical to the new 2wd 1500 truck.  Anyone have any ideas?

Im  wondering how everyone mounts 30s on the new escalades.  Im pretty sure they are all 8 lug wheels designed for the hummer...

All these wheels are 6 lug. I don't think you'll need adapters. It looks like all asanti's you can get in 6 lug. http://www.cadillacforums.com/forums/cadillac-escalade-ext-esv-forum-2007/129830-anyone-have-pics-murdered-out-escalade-2.html

The reason I want to convert to 8 lug is so I can run 10 lug super singles.  I dont want to stack adapters and I wanted to see if it was possible without 1-off custom 6 to 10 lug adapters.
