Eric,
 i'm not familar with the use of roles in Tiles.
 These roles are connected to the container managed security,
httpServletRequest.isUserInRole(..)


In the code you see this in action in

Attribute.isPermitted(request) which is called from
BasicTilesContainer.render(..)


So as long as request.isUserInRole(..) is working for you then so should
Tiles security.
