Problem with EB SS strings on Strat

Tried some EB Super Slinky 9-46 strings on my 2004 Fender Deluxe Strat with standard trem and guitar is very difficult to keep in tune. Intonation is correct. Strings were pre-stretched. Don't use trem. Strings go out of tune very easily when pressing against frets (medium jumbo). Love the tone of the strings. Got any ideas? Would a non-trem bridge solve the problem?
