Default Springs for 1985 Honda Accord/Parts Interchange

I am looking for some lowering springs for my '85 Honda Accord. I checked the Honda dealer which seems to be the only place to carry springs at all and they want $350 for 4. Would springs from an '86+ Accord work on an '85. I was checking part numbers for the '85 and '86 Accords and it looks like they use the same control arms so I'd assume they would work. Also, how low can you safely lower these cars before you start getting camber problems? I was looking at either Suspension Tech 1" lowering springs or Neuspeed 1.5" lowering springs. Would it be a good idea to also get a new set of struts when I do springs? The only struts I can find are KYB GR-2, would these be a good match for the springs? Any info is appreciated!
