no expert on them but pretty sure you will have to get the hubs machined to use those, isnt that why you buy the threaded ones so you can use them with the existing holes

Correct, however as the studs aren't oversize you probably cant use the hubs you have, i don't know if there was a MK4 Escort with studs and i don't know what hubs will fit so you may need to buy threaded studs.
