Do they exist?

I am looking for a gaming chair that either has no wheels or wheel locks. I flight sim and the room has laminate flooring and every time i use the rudder pedals i am pushing myself backwards.

Any recommendations please.

Most all office chairs use the same wheel caster size, so you can buy whatever chair you like and add a set of lockable wheels easily available from popular sites for around £10.

I use a real leather hero and recommend it but plenty of other good options to choose from.

Have a look at pedestal gaming chairs. I don't think Overclockers do one.

I recently got a G923 wheel, and had a similar problem with my chair, trick is to get an old pair of shoes (ideally with clean soles) and put the wheels inside the shoes

Edit: This is probably a temporary measure....

What you're looking for is called glides.

Get them with an 11mm stem and you're golden.
