Seems reasonable to me. You told her you would handle it...she just didn't believe/trust that you would. Her deal.

I know it's a contridiction -starting her car than not helping her with the tires - I guess I should have let her start her day in a cold car!


Yes, you are setting yourself up for a mixed message. You could salvage it by not actually getting the tires, or even the prices, but texting/emailing her the name of the business you bought them at last time, provide a phone number for the business and a quick :"This is where I purchased tires for your car last time. Give 'em a call - they can set you up."

I know you know this, but let me repeat - by carrying on with the OM, she telegraphs that you are not her partner anymore. Getting her tires is the kind of thing you would have been happy to do when you two were partners, but she has changed that.
