14 bolt full floater

I know it's big and heavy, and too wide, but shortening and ordering custom axles is no big deal. It's a true full floater with huge bearings, the ability to mount rotors inboard of the hub, bulletproof, and I'm getting one almost free. But it's 8 lug and with the diameter of the axle flange it's almost impossible to get any 5 lug to fit even with a adapter. So I guess the real question is do I use the lathe to make new hubs and since I'm ordering new shorter axles I can get a smaller axle flange and I can make it a 5 bolt pattern but it'll still be a big center bore, or is there any way to get a good 17x10 or 17x12 lightish wheel in 8 lug?
