Narrative:

We entered las ramp at spot 16 and cleared to gate X. There was no traffic on (or moving on) the ramp. The captain (in the check airman's opinion) got too close to taxiway C coming around the corner between spot 11 and 10. The captain was concerned about the left wing traveling over the ground service road etc. Even if I was aware of any problem there was nothing I could do as pm; it happened so fast etc. I was turning off the transponder and making sure the radar was off as we were approaching the gate etc. Again; I was not aware of any problem until the check airman debriefed the captain. Also; no issues (as far as I know) with ground control. The check airman suggested we file an as soon as possible report; so here it is. There should be a defined taxi line around concourse C and taxiway C; if possible.
