Default Swapping wheels

I have had my toyo t1- r on my car for 7 months now are you supposed to rotate the wheels from front to rear the tyres are wearing the same so no issues with uneven tyre wear i believe this has to be done because of the 4 wheel drive

Indeed, wheels should be rotated but only to keep the tyre wear even, it's usually the outside edges of the fronts which wear most quickly, I rotate mine every 5000 anyway just to keep things nice and even, if nothing else it's a good oportunity to clean the insides and check brakes etc..
