Hi,
I'm not looking to unlock the bootloader, I just want root. I haven't seen any method that doesn't require unlock first.
Any idea how to do this?
Don't think you can. AFAIK that's the point of the lock, to prevent any changes. My nexus s won't allow anything without unlocking BL.

Hi im about to buy a nexus 4 soon and i would like to know one thing..
I know that in order to root the nexus 4 you have to unlock the bootloader
the question is if its possible to unlock the bootloader and than root it and install a custom recovery and than relock it again and still have root and the custom recovery
Thanks!
No. You can't be locked and have a custom recovery.
You can however.
Unlock
Boot (not flash) custom recovery
Flash root binaries
Lock the bootloader again

sorry for being offtopic but may I ask what advantages you stand to gain by that.. ?
Yes you can do it.
But remember that each time you lock or unlock the bootloader you will loose all your data.
I'm not even sure that you can access the custom recovery after relock. Never tried
