wheel lock question help

My problem is I purchased a clk 430 back in march with Brabus 19" rims. One of the tires blew yesterday and all the wheels have some type of aftermarket lugnut that needs some type of adapter to take them off. The previous owner does not know where it is and said he purchased the rims from someone else which he doesn't have a contact number for anymore. I have ripped the entire car apart looking for this thing. Has anyone ever heard of these lugnuts for sale from anywhere? so I can try to buy this adapter. I just want to get rid of this car asap and this is holding me up.

Most, repeat most, tire or repair shops have a set of sockets, that friction fit over the wheel lock and can spin them off.
