4th Gen Springs?

If the answer is somewhere else, sorry. Not good at searching.

I've been told 4th gen struts won't fit a third gen, but what about just the springs?

Point being, someone local has a new set of Eibach Sportlines that he got for a 4th gen Trans Am for $75, and I don't want to buy them just to find out they won't work.

4th gen doesn't have struts at all. Has shocks up front. So yeah...

Rear springs & shocks will work, fronts won't.

So the front springs won't work at all?
