If it's old growth (IE the tree is not going to much if any taller, or 
larger in diameter), use lag bolts. You might have to make some 
adjustable spacers to allow for irregularities in the circumference and 
growth in girth. Any increase in diameter will grow right round the feet 
and bolts. Make the feet large enough to
support the weight without digging into the bark.  Trees will tolerate
lag bolts (within reason) but a wire wrapped around one will kill it.

I would think even with large trees there'd be a lot of movement.
