Offline calibration plays an important role in BESIII offline data processing. In order to achieve good spatial and momentum resolution, it is necessary to implement high precision offline calibration for the BESIII drift chamber. This paper studies the time-to-distance relations, which are important calibration constants for track reconstruction. The parameterization of the time-to-distance relation, studies of left-right asymmetry and studies of variation with entrance angle are performed. The impact of dead channels on the time-to-distance relation is given special attention in order to reduce the shift in measured momentum for tracks passing near dead cells. Finally. we present the resolutions for barrel Bhabha events (vertical bar cos theta vertical bar < 0.8) from a J/psi data set taken in 2012. The average spatial resolution is 123 mu m and the momentum resolution for 1.548 GeV/c Bhabha tracks is 11.9 MeV/c.
