When twisting the joystick to the left, the front and back wheels turn away from each other. The front go forward and the back go backward. When twisting the joystick right, that is reversed, with the front going back and the back going forward.
That would explain why you are not rotating.

To rotate clockwise, the left wheels should be going forward and the right wheels backward. Vice-versa for turning counter-clockwise.
