How can I gel 5-lug rims on my 7?

As most of you know, the early model 7's come with just 4-lug rims. Is there an adapter that I can get that will allow 5-lugs as well as making wider tires possible? It's just that I don't feel like pulling the rims from a huandai or sumthin.

The only sketchy thing here is it looks like they only get held on by three lugs?
