Third Season Specials, watch Ep1 before starting to watch the actual GX anime and watch Ep2 after GX Ep1. Then watch Ep3 & Ep4 after finishing Symphogear GX
(at some point during the latter GX episodes you could watch Ep3 & Ep4 without spoilers of the main anime but whatever)

Fifth Season Specials, watch Ep1 & Ep4 Before the actual season (events between AXZ and XV), then the other two episodes you can watch them after XV Ep8.
I recommend to actually complete Shinai Symphogear XV before finishing the main series (so go watch Ep2 & Ep3 after watching XV Ep8 and before XV Ep9) because imo it's way better if the very last thing you see is the final episodes of XV instead of watching the specials after the end of the series, it makes for a better experience for your first time watching Gear and so you'll enjoy the finale a lot more(?).
