Chad, you have the correct hardware ... it's called a spline adapter.  Just
take off one of your adapters and let the shop mount it to their machine.
Here's an article showing that Hendrix Wire Wheel in Greensboro, NC does it
that way:

However, the fellow at Valley Wire Wheel Service in Van Nuys, CA does have
the cones to mount wire wheels directly onto his machine.  I don't know
where he got them, though.  He has a lot of other fairly rare wire wheel
equipment (eg machine to make spokes) so that may apply to his balancer as
well.
