Default Beehive shape valve springs?

I've seen these to have better spring rate than most major brands. Do they make any for imports. I've been seeing these on domestic cars. Supposedly stronger and more cost effective b/c top of the spring is smaller, utilizing a smaller valve spring retainer. Anyone have any info or thoughts.

Yes mostly for domestics, Ive seen a couple of honda springs that are single coil springs that are still stable up to high rpm but dont utilize a crazy seat pressure thats way overkill and starts becoming too much of a resistance to the cam rotating.

very expensive though.
