RE: tire options - non standard size question

it appears that both 160/60-18 and 150/70-18 are optimal on a 4.25" rim width.  the 140/70-18 is of course optimal on our 4" rim width.  What kind of handling change can be expected by putting a rear tire on that is going on a rim that is 1/4" narrower than "optimal"?  I'm sure they'd fit and seal, but what about handling?  I've heard good things on this forum wrt the T32s, but, if they are unobtanium then I think it's good to understand the options.
thanks,
