Do you know if they clear the caliper without a spacer?
That's the question.
I want to mount Chevy Corvette rally wheels on my C-5 Mazda. I also have 3 complete sets of S10 wheels I could use.
Being able to switch between vehicles would be a benefit as I run winter and all season tires. Paying for mounting and dismounting adds up. What do I need as far as wheel adapters?

Won't work.
Pre-C8 Corvettes (C4 to C7)
- Bolt Pattern: 5x120.65 mm (5x4.75 inches)
- Applications: C4 (1984-1996), C5 (1997-2004), C6 (2005-2013), and C7 (2014-2019) generations
C8 Corvettes and newer
- Bolt Pattern: 5x120 mm
- Applications: C8 (2020-2026) generation
You need wheels that are 5x114.3 mm (5x4.5 inches).
OP, you're not even close to the starting point. Wheels are all round, but not all interchangeable. Find and compare the varying measurements for all of yours here, including what the mysterious target car requires. More legwork required. A reference guide to wheel and tire sizes for your car

There’s a point where I wonder if an OP is just trolling…
I realize I need an adapter. I'm just wondering if with the adapter, will it work? Will the wheel stick out to far?
Not trolling. Would like to use wheels I have.
I'd really like to use my Chevy wheels. I especially would like to set the Mazda up with Corvette ralleys. i need to know what, if any, adapter will be make the lug pattern, center bore, and offset workable.
I have found some used Nissan steel wheels, 17". I'm not thrilled with the appearance with rally rings and a bunch of little round holes.

I’d guess that those rally wheels have something close to zero offset. Once you add an inch and a half for an adapter, your wheels would end up sticking out several inches beyond the fenders. Your suspension’s not going to like that.

You haven't specified what year Corvette those are from, but from what I'm seeing the 17" run from 8.5 to 11" wide and from +36 to +56 offset. Often times they differ in offset from front to rear since the rears are wider. You need the same offset on all 4 on the CX-5.
I wouldn't try to fit wider than 9" wheels on these cars at the stock +45 offset, and as you get to 9.5" I would go out to +40.
You could use step-up rings for the center bore from 67.1mm to 70.3mm, but the real issue is the bolt pattern does not fit. I agree with @leeharvey418 that once an adapter is used these are going to stick out pretty bad. Not only will that look bad, but you will mess up your scrub radius.
I avoided these issues by sticking with the stock offset of +45, which means when I upsized my wheels from 19x7 to 20x9, the width increase is equal on both the inside and outside.

So you haven't even gotten the car yet, and you already want to mess around with the wheels.
You don't know the OEM wheel specifications, or the specifications of all these different wheels you want to run.
So you just automatically jump to slapping wheels spacers on.
I... Since you're not trolling, I suggest you read up on the specifications of your OEM wheels and consider only adding wheels on that match. Those specifications.
