Posi-lock is the wheel hub itself:

I'm guessing depending on the version of RC10GT you have, one will have normal nut/hex hubs and one will have the posi-lock hubs. And yes, it would make sense that those are for the rear since that's what connects your power to your wheel. The fronts don't need a hub like that because they just free-spin on bearings.

EDIT:
Found the bearings: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXPA18&P=ML

Downloaded all the documents for the GT2 off of www.rc10.com.
In this part of the manual:
http://aedownloads.com/downloads/manuals/gt04_manualb.pdf
page 11 (says page 27), they show the bearings:
