Usually you want to use both.

Although I think there are some flywheels that call for rtv on the bolts because they are drilled all the way through.

I hope everyone notices that the driver of the truck in the left lane in that video manages to drift too close to the center divider and scrapes a wheel (the spare?) off the trailer he's towing.

Looks like the trailer managed to lose a spare by driving on the shoulder.

Speaking of lugs (and studs too!) being AWOL:

Bobcat at work this morning. Guy went to top up oil etc, went to drive off and the wheel fell off. Sheared all the studs right off.

That night we performed the rite and opened the gate.
Halfway through, I went to fix us both a coke float.
By the time I got back, he'd gone insane.
Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.

Do the operators routinely ram into things in high speed mode? That puts huge stresses on the drive train although I'm surprised the wheel lugs went before the drive motors.

Do you work at a metal recycling yard? Because if so then that Bobcat is like a year old. I used to work at a dealer and one of the local recyclers would lease like 3 brand new Bobcats at a time for a year and they would come back absolutely trashed. Severe duty tires worn completely beyond the wear limit, covered in grime, most of the paint and decals gone, huge scratches and dents in the body, hydraulic oil the colour of black coffee, etc. It's legit impressive how much wear and tear they put on those things.

Witnesses said the Prius was traveling north on Martin Luther King Jr. Street at a high rate of speed and disregarded a stop light before striking the one-story building. Nine employees were inside the business at the time but were evacuated without injury.
