There are companies selling Gorilla lug nut sets that they say are compatible with the S550. If you look at the conical shape of the lug, ideally you should have the same shape as the OEM lugs. Below are the lugs that match the shape of the OEM lugs.

Here is a link to a similar set that has a very different conical shape. I purchased these then sent them back when the shape looked different and then found the above set. The lugs below do fit but I don't like the contact area being different then OEM. Maybe it's just me but I wanted other to be aware of the differences.

While they both have 60 degree conical seats, the first link lugs are "bulge" conical seat type and the second link are "standard" conical seat type.

The first larger diameter version would be used with the factory wheels and the smaller one with aftermarket wheels.
