Will they fit a 2007 sport trac limited 4x4 on stock wheels without lift?

Yes, 265-65-18 will fit, as will 265-75-18 if you want a little taller appearance. I've read here & elsewhere that some folks will see rubbing up front at full-turn-lock... others don't. Wouldn't sweat it if you aren't making full sharp turns regularly.

Hope you are getting these tires cheap or free = my experience with Cooper is they are great when new, but quickly prove to be noisy junk tires before half worn. And I've had a few sets.
 






Thanks man. I'll check into the 75s.
 






It seems Cooper also makes the AT3 in 255/70R18 (~32in, but less wide, so hopefully less chance of rubbing).

I had 255/60R18 Grabber AT2s, and they rubbed a bit on full lock when I first got them.

I've heard lots of positive reviews of the new AT3s, but I've also heard similar sentiments to Trac Marks; however, those sentiments were usually talking about the older STTs and STs. The AT3s are supposedly all new, etc., so maybe they'll hold up better. Just do your research, read and read some more. I was thinking of getting some AT3s for my lil Subie, but after thinking it over, I'll probably just get the AT2s again. They were a bit loud, but they worked really well in lots of conditions.
 






I just picked up some Bridgestone Dueller A/T's in 265/65/18 and I can say they do rub ever so slightly at full wheel lock. No big deal though. I definitely like how they fill out the wheel well a little better than the stock 235's.
