- Economical tires (usually with 14'' wheels)
- 14.7:1 steering, 2.6 (L-to-L)
FE1:
- Front stabilizer bar. No stabilizer bar on back
- Touring all season tires when equipped with 15'' tires
- 14.7:1 steering, 2.6 (L-to-L)
FE2:
- Thicker front stabilizer bar. Rear stabilizer bar
- Performance all season tires (H-rated)

Control arms the same.

^^ Didn't know about the different steering ratios before, but I find it odd that the FE2 has the higher ratio, and not the lower one.
Also, there is something different about the control arms, although I never figured out what. When you replace them, they have different part numbers for the FE0/FE1 and FE2.
^I found it odd too. When I had the 96 Sunfire SE and then the 02 Sunfire GT. I immediately notice the that the SE was not only quicker, but firmer as well. I think the FE2's power steering are are variable effort too.
