I play only pure nickel Pyramid on all of my guitars and have never had a problem. Maybe the truss rod was right on the edge of being "tight" for 10's and dropping to 9's having less tension has caused a backbow?
You say you have adjusted it so that should resolve that.
The only pure nickel strings I have had a problem with is DR's...they can sometimes be wound off centre and "wobble"....
I changed to D'Addario pure nickel strings on two of my guitars a few years ago, 10-46 on one and 11-48 on the other. There were no problems arising from the change but the gauges were the same as the previous nickel plated strings.
As @TA22GT said, it's probably the reduced tension of super lights causing the buzzing. Truss rod adjustment should sort that without necessarily raising the action. Then let it settle with the lighter strings for some hours before using the first and thirteenth fret quick method to check the relief.
FWIW my brief experiences of superlight strings suggest they can tend to be buzzy/rattly anyway.
