Is BlackScholes premium calculation is perfect in this case?

you would need to use some greeks here, perhaps vega. I guess, the question could be framed better.

yup, you are right, using vega is another method of spread calculation. But what about higher adjustment in this case? However if you calculate premium spread using Blacksholes, these adjustment might not be needed.
