Marcel,
from my point of view the question is why would you want to use mapview with custom tiles?

If the answer to this is that you want to create a final presentation grade map including some of the features that mapview provides by default (i.e. zoom-to-layer button, attribute table popup, mouse coordinates, scaleBar), you can do so by adding all these components to your custom map:

library(mapview)
library(raster)

leaflet() %>%
  addTiles(urlTemplate = 'http://localhost:8000/tiles8/{z}/{x}/{y}.png',
           options = tileOptions(minZoom = 2, maxZoom = 8, tms = TRUE)) %>%
  addPolygons(data = gadmCHE, popup = popupTable(gadmCHE),
              label = row.names(gadmCHE)) %>%
  addHomeButton(extent(gadmCHE), layer.name = "gadmCHE") %>%
  addMouseCoordinates() %>%
  addScaleBar(position = "bottomleft")

or simply

leaflet() %>%
  addTiles(urlTemplate = 'http://localhost:8000/tiles8/{z}/{x}/{y}.png',
           options = tileOptions(minZoom = 2, maxZoom = 8, tms = TRUE)) +
  gadmCHE

which will mimic mapview feel and look even more.

If, on the other hand, you need to either plot often using your custom tiles or need mapview to first set up your map, then no, this is currently not possible. This can, however be made possible but for that I would ask you to please file a feature request at

Hello,

Is it possible to use mapview with custom tiles without the predefined 
basemaps? In leaflet it is possible with the addTiles() function and a url 
(urlTemplate). It should work something like:

library(mapview)
mapview(gadmCHE)@map %>% addTiles(urlTemplate = 
'http://localhost:8000/tiles8/{z}/{x}/{y}.png',options = tileOptions(minZoom = 2, 
maxZoom = 8, tms = TRUE))

In this the local computer serves the tiles with SimpleHTTPServer
$ python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000

The problem is, that it's not possible to switch off the preconfigured basemaps 
and those are overwriting my local tiles.

Thanks,
Marcel
