Default Tires on Prelude

I was told by a dealership that I absolutely had to have a certain kind of tire for the Prelude. I can't remember what it was, but those tires were hard rubber, and I already had some trouble in the past with hydroplaning. I ended up buying a softer tire (which I ma much happier with) at another store because the dealership wouldn't even consider putting them on. They refused.

This was fine, because going to a tire store saved me a ton and the softer tires help my stability a bit at high speeds (don't ask, haha).

But I was just wondering what was up with that from the dealership. Were they just trying to make another few bucks off another "stupid woman"? Or is there something to this?
