Hi MIke, I think The front is the same (14.5mm from inner bearing surface to outside sidewall of the wheel), but has the option to go much less offset by accepting a non flanged bearing on the inside.
The rear has more offset, i am not sure exactly how much more BC i don't have a Jaco here to measure. but the rear offset is almost exact to a CRC, BSR.
So in the front you will be fine but the rear you will be wider with the G12's and will need to narrow up your rear axle from Jaco's.

Thanks for the support, I really hope you like them.
Paul
