Hi if I'm to get a set of wheel spacers, do I need new longer locking wheel nuts? If so has anyone any recommendations of sizes and prices needed. I'm looking at the bulldog wheel spacers

If you standard wheel nut fits so will your standard lock nut.

Looking at the 30mm spacers on the Bulldog website, it looks like the spacer is bolted onto the existing hub, nuts are supplied and the spacer already has new threaded studs fitted, so there's no need for different wheelnuts. The cost of these spacers is about £150 for a set.
Personally I reckon that spacers can start putting extra strain on the hub bearings; think levers and moments around a fulcrum.

It appears for the pictures on the www that they don't come with any wheel nuts, locking or otherwise but just the fixing nuts for the spacer.
