Load resistors will fix hyper flashing yes, as long as the power consumption is less than the stock bulbs a load resistor is needed to bring back the balance again. I'm afraid you'll need seperate ones for the back too.

I used something like this successfully in my Acura. Bear in mind, they get VERY hot so keep them away from other wires and/or plastic material.

What brand are your LED turn signals? I have the V3 tritons and they only require one pair of load resistors to eliminate hyper flash for both the front and back. The load resistors do get extremely hot so I don't recommend you mounting them in the trunk. I mounted mine in the engine bay attached to metal using high temp 3m tape. No issues what so ever and I'm super happy with them.
