You were experiencing an attempt at an "upsell" on maintenance. As noted by racoon, there is not "balance tires" on the maintenance code list of the MM.
No harm in the dealer politely trying, and absolutely no harm in you politely declining. If they get testy and insistent about it though... I would pick a different dealer.. and probably lodge a complaint directly to Honda.
The dealer I use for maintenance never tries this, and in fact works very hard to make sure you are fully satisfied when you leave..... because they know Honda Corporate will be sending you a quality of service survey and it appears that at least for my dealer both the service consultants, the service personnel, and the management are dinged in some way by Honda when they receive bad feedback from an owner.
