    A set of alloys named "Beta Quebecois" is available for 4-lugs wheel hubs. Nothing new here.

    They look like this:



    They also look very close to this real-life counterpart to me:



    (For those who don't know, the car depicted here is an Alfa Romeo Montreal with factory alloys)

    So... Beta follows Alpha in the greek alphabet. Montreal is in Quebec, Canada....

    Yay me for getting the reference...? :rolleyes:

    Definitely intentional, they are completely identical rims. Interesting easter egg.

    maybe some new kind of civetta coming with the italy map?

    edit ; probably an alfa-like brand. you know , beta comes after alpha. this theory is probably more logical :p

    If Beta turns out being a brand for beamng, i think i'll get mad, Alfa Romeo is my favourite brand!

    Seconded!

    They could have a full line-up of underdeveloped FWD vehicles pitted against modern ETKs, and maybe an historical, badge-engineered version of the Ibishu Covet called the "Beta Biscia", with unreliable italian underpinnings dressed in frumpy japanese styling... :D
