Meh, throw a wheel skin on it and order a new 4 dollar ///m stripe and enjoy it. It's an upgrade from what you have for sure.

There are 2 sizes for the MtechI 380mm and the 365mm. The regular wheel on your 318 is a 380mm, if the Mtech1 you got is from a e30 M3 it will be the smaller 365mm. Simply place your new wheel face to face on your old one and you will be able to see if its smaller or the same size.

OP, the wheel wont look so bad if you just remove the leather completely. They arent terrible without the leather.

M3's came with the big wheel, same as the 325iS here. In Europe some cars were equipped with the smaller wheel, but not all.

That said, that is the bigger wheel. If it has gaps between the right and left spokes and the circular part of the wheel it is the larger one.
