You first have to ask: How accurate does your measurement need to be? +/- 5%? +/-1%? +/- 0.5%?

And once the error been established, the change in the diameter of the smaller spool may be irrelevant or well within your error budget.

Who measures tolerances in percentages? Unless you’re trying to calculate a safety factor. +/- usually in inches or mm.
