12.50 is too wide for a 7" rim. Plus it would look wierd. I agree with running a 10.50

I ran 33x12.5 Pro-Comp X-terrains on my stock rims for over a year....no problems at all.

The problem will be that you will have to run at a low pressure to get even wear, and that's gonna cost you gas money. Or you can buy rims.

OR you could sell the 12.50's and the lift, and use that to pay for the 10.50's and be done.

7" is a little skinny for a 12.50" tire but it would be fine.

The only place I could see there being an issue is rubbing the UCA with the tire sidewall. Generally those 4" lift kits require a wheel that sticks out farther to clear the drop spindles...or something like that.
