Once your either one of the above, you need to flash a custom recovery, then you can install roms and root.

You don't need root for flashing custom ROM
You just need unlocked bootloader which you already have done.
For rooting you can place supersu.zip file in phone memory & install that zip from recovery option

[Q] Root and custom recovery question

Hello? I was recently s-off, unlocked and using Adrenaline sense 6 lollipop rom.
Yesterday, I went back to stock 4.4.4 using the ruu file. I still have the s-off and unlocked.
Now my questions are..
1. Can I install custom recovery first then root by using supersu.zip file?
2. Or do I need to root first by weaksauce or something then get custom recovery?
You can go straight to installing a custom recovery. From there you can either flash the su binaries to achieve pure stock rooted rom or you could flash any one of the custom roms available which are pre-rooted.

Is it possible to flash custom roms on a rooted droid maxx

Ive heard that you cant install custom roms on a droid maxx simply because the bootloader is locked. But if my phone is rooted is it possible to install custom roms like CM if so how do I do it?
No you can't install custom Roms as it is necessary to unlock the bootloader prior installation of roms.

You should find a custom rom which is properly ported for your device. Otherwise won't work.
