I have the RE050A N-spec tires and am very happy with them. I'm not sure what the exact differences between the N-spec (Porsche-recommended) and the RE050A Pole Positions are, but it looks like the Pole Positions don't come in the standard 18" OEM sizes, nor does the RE01R (going by the spec charts on Tire Rack - no 265/40-18). I would recommend checking out the recommended choices for the Cayman on Tire Rack, if you haven't already.
