Assuming your rule is applied to the port 80 VIP this shouldn't be an issue - just make sure you don't apply the rule to your port 443 VIP.

 

 

Also, it looks like you have an extraneous ':443' in the redirect URL. I'm guessing you intend this to be the port, but it should be appended to the Host portion of the URL, not the end of the path. It shouldn't be needed at all, though since the default port for https is 443 and therefor doesn't ned to be spec'd at all.
