For your application I recommend going with a Thule WingBar Evo roof rack because they look sleek and are easier to install than most other roof racks. The correct parts depends on if your 2022 Mazda CX-5 has a bare roof or the flush mount rails:
Bare Roof
53" WingBar Evo Crossbars - Black # TH711420 or Silver # TH711400
Evo Clamp Feet - # TH710501
Fit Kit - # TH145079
Lock Kit - # TH450400 (optional)
Flush Rails
47" WingBar Evo Crossbars - Black # TH711220 or Silver # TH711200
Rapid Podium Feet - # TH460R
Fit Kit - # THKIT3160
Lock Kit - # TH450400 (optional)
As far as the roof box goes, the Thule Force XT XXL # TH6359B will technically fit, but it's a few inches too long and you won't be able to completely open up your rear hatch. If you really want the 22 cu ft of space then you'll just need to hold onto your hatch door to make sure it doesn't hit the box. Otherwise you can go with the slightly smaller Thule Force XT XL # TH6358B which fits just fine.
