Yes,
108mm is the standard Ford wheel PCD.
Most Peugeots are also this size.

Pdc is fine but the offset should be 19mm ish for the Rwd escort .
Sierra's and other Fwd Fords tend to be 35-38mm offset.
Pugs tend to have the 19mm offset and the 108mm pcd but have a bigger spigot center.
Even with the 19mm offset people tend to increase this with spacers, this avoids the caravan look ie fills the arches, and to clear the trailing arms
better.

Escort and Cortina wheels are 4.25" PCD --- very close to but not quite 108mm
