This is in fact the entire point of saying --no-index; "don't download stuff 
from the internet".  So it's working as designed.  You need to make sure all 
your dependencies are available before you run that `pip install´ command.  
Have you?

You're doing this in vaguely the right way with `pip install -f --no-index´.  
As Ben Finney already pointed out, these are not distutils options so the whole 
thing with --global-option is a complete red herring, give up on that :-).

In fact, as stated, your example works just fine:

$ mkdir offline_stuff
$ pip wheel --wheel-dir offline_stuff pytz
Collecting pytz
  Saved ./offline_stuff/pytz-2015.7-py2.py3-none-any.whl
Skipping pytz, due to already being wheel.
$ mktmpenv ; cd -

So if you could please provide a sample `setup.py´ or sample 
`requirements.txt´, along with exactly what unexpected output you got, it would 
be helpful in understanding what went wrong.  This should be a minimal example 
demonstrating just the problem you're seeing, not your whole project; see 
http://sscce.org for a longer explanation.
