Just saw a bunch of U/R combos and I wanted them to see on edh, I can't think of a proper commander for them, but here are the combos. We play somewhat casually, my friends use Oloro,Kemba,Omnath and Sheoldred. I'm new so I wanted to try a budget deck first.
The combos are perminate based so the spells Izzet commanders don't seem relevent.
For Temur commanders Riku of Two Reflections seems like your kind of card Animar, Soul of Elements making your combo pieces cheaper to cast allows you to go off faster and it produces a bunch of other combos on its own.
I think Riku of Two Reflections may be the way to go as he can be a piece used in a lot of different infinite combos by copying creatures or spells. If your friends play casually infinite combos may not be right for you though. They can be a pretty disappointing way for the game to end for people who are just trying to have a good time and don't have their decks tuned to stop it.

nah I think my buddies can stop these combos provided they know the combos. they can easily be disrupted by removals and such. I made a mistake though,cancel the last combo since I'm only using U/R. do you have other commander suggestions?

Narvuntien's suggestions above are solid. As he said Niv-Mizzet would give you something to do if you create infinite mana so could be part of a combo piece. Jori En, Ruin Diver is a cheaper option that'll give you some card draw. You could also partner Ludevic, Necro-Alchemist and Kraum, Ludevic's Opus, again just for value. I don't know that there's a perfect commander in UR for what you're trying to do.
If you want to play more infinite combo stuff you can play Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind as your Commander who wins if enchanted with Curiosity or Ophidian Eye. The Locust God also works well with all those draw effects that where already mentioned.
