Heidenau K60's OK to put 140/80 on the rear?

Looks like the K60's won't be available for a while in the rear stock size 150/70.  Will order a set with the 140/80 for the rear.

Anyone know if this is OK?  I can't see how this will make much difference.  Tire diameter is about the same and the width is just 10mm smaller.

Cheers!

I would say you would only notice a difference on very hard cornering, may turn in a little faster or slower, depending on the tire profile of what you are replacing. Should work fine.
