Can you replace a 215 with a 255?
Not unless you change the aspect ratio. For instance: If you have a 215/70-15 tire and you replace it with a 255/70-15 this would be a horrible swap as the 255/70-15 would be 7.58% larger in overall diameter. It is never advisable to go over 3% difference in size. Besides your speedometer would read 55.4 at a true 60 mph. If you want to install a 255 tire you will need to install a 255/60-15 to replace a 215/70-15 which is an excellent swap.

What happens when you step on the brakes?
In a manual brake system, the pressure from your foot increases the pressure in the brake lines and in the brake cylinders. The clyinders expand and press the brake pad or shoe against the brake friction surface (a drum or a rotor) increasing the friction and causing the wheels to stop or slow. In a power brake system, your foot pressure is enhanced by the power assist on the master cylinder to make stopping easier.

Not all tyres have grooves. Take the "slick" tyre - it does not have grooves. It is used always in racing (as it is illegal to use on most countries roads) and only in dry weather (permitting).
"Normal" tyres have grooves, as a channel to expel water from the surface of the tyre. Without these "grooves", driving in the wet would be a hair-raising experience, as the tyre would aquaplane on the water giving the driver, no grip or control.
This is also the reason that most countries have a limit on the tread depth, to ensure that the channels are large enough to expel any water away from the surface of the tyre.
