I'm planning on getting some all-terrain tires. I wanted to get some BF Goodrich T A KO. Will these raise my Sport Trac? I want my ST to look a little bit higher than stock height.

Tire brand or style has little to nothing to do with the ride height. If you go with a larger size, then it will be higher.

I have to agree with Caymen on this. I have read here that the same tire size can vary amongst tire manufacturers, but my guess is +/- 1/2".

Ryan,
My OEM tires were 255 and i went to 265 BFG All Terrains KO. I didn't actually measure, but I got an extra inch (+/-) of height from switching to a larger tire size. When I'm parked beside a stock STrac, mine appears to be about 2 inches higher. Be prepared to trim some plastic to eliminate a slight rub at full turn lock (I use 1.25" spacers though, so your tires may end up sitting differently than mine).
