Wheel balancer advice

I recently purchased a black pro wheel balancer kit with the intention of stripping, painting and then installing new tyres. It looks like I've fallen at the first hurdle.

The balancer doesn't seem to accommodate the rear wheel as the cones are too thin and too long.

Anyone got any ideas on how I can get round this.

I have a couple extra cones that will work from the Harbor Freight kits if you need one...I am sure I could ship it to you cheap.

Tightwad thank you so much for the offer.  Looks like I may have sorted it out.  I turned the cones around and it works! Amazing what happens when you're half asleep from a night shift :-)
