Narrative:
We were set up for the ILS 25L in phx and were subsequently cleared for the visual approach 25L. We had selected autobrakes 3 (7;800 ft runway) and I landed the airplane uneventfully. At 80 kts the captain transitioned onto the controls and announced 'I have control'. At that moment phx tower called 'aircraft X heavy; take the next exit and cross runway 25R at foxtrot 4'. We exited the next available taxiway to our right G3 and turned left onto F to taxi towards F4. While exiting at G3 I announced to tower 'exiting golf 3' to let tower know we were clear of the runway; since we had traffic on final close behind us. Phx tower replied 'no golf 2' which was the next exit further down the runway; but at this point we already had exited. Then tower came back and stated 'left on foxtrot; cross 25R at foxtrot 4 then contact ground'. We crossed 25 right at F4 and at E4 contacted phx ground which instructed us to taxi on east to the ramp.after aircraft shutdown the captain called the tower for clarification and we were told that we did not have wingtip clearance from a localizer shed and GS antenna located between G3 and G2 taxiing westbound on F. A thorough post-flight inspection did not reveal any aircraft damage. We also re-checked the airport pages and the notams as well as re-listened to the current ATIS; and neither mentioned any wingtip clearances notes.since the tower did not precisely know our deceleration speed and apparently expected us to roll further down the runway; the phraseology of 'take the next right' or 'exit the next taxiway' is too ambiguous and ought not be used. But instead the specific taxi designation needs to be called out. Also; if there are any wingtip clearance issues; they need to be noted somewhere.

Title: Air carrier First Officer reported that while on PHX Taxiway F after passing G3 west bound to G2 ATC advised them their wingtip clearance was insufficient.
Narrative: We were set up for the ILS 25L in PHX and were subsequently cleared for the Visual approach 25L. We had selected AUTOBRAKES 3 (7;800 ft Runway) and I landed the airplane uneventfully.

We exited the next available taxiway to our right G3 and turned left onto F to taxi towards F4. While exiting at G3 I announced to Tower 'Exiting Golf 3' to let Tower know we were clear of the runway; since we had traffic on final close behind us. PHX Tower replied 'No Golf 2' which was the next exit further down the runway; but at this point we already had exited. Then Tower came back and stated 'Left on Foxtrot; cross 25R at Foxtrot 4 then contact Ground'. We crossed 25 R at F4 and at E4 contacted PHX Ground which instructed us to taxi on E to the ramp.After aircraft shutdown the Captain called the tower for clarification and we were told that we did not have wingtip clearance from a localizer shed and GS antenna located between G3 and G2 taxiing westbound on F. A thorough post-flight inspection did not reveal any aircraft damage.
