I don't know for sure and I don't have any Cortina ones left to check.
The Cortina hubs in the UK are designed for their mark 3 Cortina (our TC) onwards, and they also have a +10mm offset on them.
 
Don't get fooled by the term Escort mk2 on HiSpec website; this will be UK Mk2 Escort and again, the Aussie hubs are unique to here....

I wonder whether there is enough interest in an "Australian Edition" of alloy hubs to merit a manufacturer making up a batch.  I don't know enough about them to approach anyone about it myself though.  Any takers?

I already have hubs at 2 suppliers in the UK.
The costs are basically double what the regular ones are and I have to buy 50.
If there were 15 people willing to put their hand up for a set I would make it happen.

It's not gonna beat me
As a last resort I will sleave the stub axle as per Hak067.

Paul,
 
Because of the amount of dicking around required think about getting something like this maybe, if you haven't already done the coilover conversion.  
 
May just be easier and cheaper too. 
 
Cheers

Id go some 2.8i struts and hubs from the UK.. shipping was a bit (around $200au as i recall) but everything still turned out reasonable. 
If you look on the fleabay there are usually some decent bargains if your lucky..
eg: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm...e3#ht_500wt_1211 
 
I found this the best option as its just the best way to go from the start. And if/when I'm after alloy hubs its a doozey..
Mine went from like the above link.. to now for not too much cost. Shock and coil over kit from motorsport-tools.
